Ascent going up fairly smoothly and never very hard. Very little traffic. Allows you to close interesting loops in the area. Just before the little church at the top is a drinking fountain not designed by a cyclist. Filling your water bottle is a bit tricky. At the top you can continue right to Selvino and other detours, and left to Dossena.

Ascent going up fairly smoothly and never very hard. Very little traffic. Allows you to close interesting loops in the area. Just before the little church at the top is a drinking fountain not designed by a cyclist. Filling your water bottle is a bit tricky. At the top you can continue right to Selvino and other detours, and left to Dossena. In this case I suggest passing through the small road just behind the church that runs through the hamlet of Tagliata. Zero traffic at the cost of rough asphalt. The detour to Bagnella after Passoni allows you to stay further out of the already sparse traffic.

Salita che va su abbastanza regolare e mai durissima. Pochissimo traffico. Permette di chiudere interessanti anelli in zona. Poco prima della chiesetta in cima si trova una fontanella non progettata da un ciclista. Riempire la borraccia è un po' complicato. In alto si può proseguire a destra per Selvino e altre deviazioni, mentre a sinistra verso Dossena. In questo caso suggerisco di passare nella stradetta appena dietro alla chiesa che attraversa la frazione di Tagliata. Zero traffico a costo di un asfalto ruvido. La deviazione per Bagnella dopo Passoni permette di rimanere ulteriormente fuori dal già scarso traffico.
