Long climb but worthwhile. Wide road with moderate traffic. When you get to the pass the view is worth the effort.

Salita lunga ma da fare. Strada ampia e con traffico moderato. Quando si arriva al passo la vista vale la fatica.

Not a nice climb. Easy to do but unfortunately little shade reasonable traffic and wide roads. There is a restaurant at the top of the col, though.

Geen mooie klim. Wel makkelijk te doen maar helaas weinig schaduw redelijk wat verkeer en brede wegen. Bovenop de col is wel een restaurant.
