Nice climb, a great classic of Bergamo and Val Cavallina. The ascent of Colle Gallo from Casazza is a fun climb, not always steady but very training. A few tears here and there, beautiful scenery but be careful in summer because the whole climb is exposed to the sun. At the top is the little church of Our Lady of the Cyclists and a small cycling museum downstairs with various memorabilia.

Bella salita, un grande classicone della bergamasca e della Val Cavallina. La salita del Colle Gallo da Casazza è un’ascesa divertente, non sempre costante ma molto allenante. Qualche strappo qui e la, bei paesaggi ma attenzione d’estate perché tutta la salita è esposta al sole. In cima la chiesetta della Madonna dei Ciclisti ed un piccolo museo del ciclismo al piano inferiore con diversi cimeli.

I loved this climb. The road surface isn't great (but is being repaired and it stays damp for a long time in the morning. Do it
