Nice climb, with nice inclines. Long stretches in the woods and also nice views.

Bella salita, con delle pendenze piacevoli. Lunghi tratti nel bosco e anche dei bei panorami.

A long climb that runs well, but doesn't really have any really nice views so you can't really look away and enjoy the scenery (except for a bit around the town of prints). The road meanders uphill and there are only a few hairpin turns in the last part of the climb. This makes the descent from the summit to Lana incredibly enjoyable and nowhere do you have to brake really hard. The asphalt is of excellent condition.

Een lange klim die goed loopt, maar eigenlijk geen echt mooie vergezichten heeft waardoor je niet echt van je af kunt kijken en genieten van de omgeving (op een stukje rondom het plaatsje afdrukken na). De weg meandert naar boven en er zijn maar een paar haarspeldbochten in het laatste gedeelte van de klim. Dit maakt dat de afdaling van de top naar Lana ontzettend lekker is en je nergens echt hard hoeft te remmen. Het asfalt is van uitstekende staat.

Ascent from the South Tyrolean side of the pass
Not very difficult, fairly heavy traffic even during the week, decent panorama even if you often stay under cover

Salita dal versante Altoatesino del passo
Non molto difficile, traffico abbastanza pesante anche durante la settimana, panorama discreto anche se spesso si resta al coperto

Ascent on a beautiful road surface through the Val Passiria. I didn't find it very pleasant, however: the gradient is never excessive but as there is not a metre of level ground the fatigue is uninterrupted, moreover there are few bends and even fewer hairpin bends, so you suffer a little from monotony.
The best views are before 1,000 metres, in particular Gfrill (Caprile) is an enchanting place. From there to the pass, you travel through the forest and, although wonderful, the climb becomes a little repetitive. At the pass there is little to see, so a good climb for the body but not the most exciting adventure you can have on the South Tyrolean roads.

Salita su bellissimo fondo stradale tra risale la Val Passiria. Non l'ho trovata molto piacevole però: la pendenza non è mai eccessiva ma non essendoci un metro di piano la fatica è ininterrotta, inoltre ci sono poche curve e ancor meno tornanti, per cui si soffre un po' di monotonia.
I migliori panorami sono prima dei 1000 mt di quota, in particolare Gfrill (Caprile) è un luogo incantevole. Da lì al Passo si viaggia nel bosco e per quanto meraviglioso la salita diventa un po' ripetitiva. Al Passo poco da vedere, per cui una buona salita per il corpo ma non l'avventura più appassionante che si possa fare sulle strade Alto Atesine.

Nice climb if you come from Merano and Lana. Not too difficult, no really steep sections (12+deg).
