The first section of the road coincides with the start of the Passo della Foce; after one kilometer, turn left and tackle the final hairpin turns to reach the fortress. You then descend the same way you climbed. A nice little climb to train your legs on gradients of around 10–11%.

Il primo tratto di strada coincide con l'inizio del Passo della Foce, dopo un km si svolta a sinistra e si affrontano gli ultimi tornanti per raggiungere la Fortezza. Si scende poi da dove si è saliti. Un simpatico muro per allenare la gamba su pendenze intorno al 10-11％.
