Start in the centre of Pederiva between the houses, and climb fairly steeply on good tarmac to the Church of Grancona. From here you turn right for the last demanding section that concludes the climb. Technically difficult, with a wonderful panorama, just a little traffic (not excessive) and excellent asphalt. It deserves five stars.... read more

Technically difficult, with a wonderful panorama, just a little traffic (not excessive) and excellent asphalt. It deserves five stars.

Si parte dal centro di Pederiva tra le case, e si sale abbastanza decisi su buon asfalto fino alla Chiesa di Grancona. Da qui si volta a destra per l'ultimo impegnativo tratto che conclude l'ascesa.
Tecnicamente difficile, con un panorama stupendo, con giusto un po' di traffico (non eccessivo ) e ottimo asfalto. Merita cinque stelle.

Grancona is a challenging ascent. For this type of climbing, we recommend mountain gearing, specifically a compact system. This means a small front chainring of 34 teeth, combined with a rear cassette where, depending on your level, strength, and experience, you choose a sprocket with 30, 32, or even 34 teeth. Remember that a smooth cadence is always more efficient!
