The Gotthard begins for one kilometre on a wide but very busy road. This is not the best part. Right at the top, you turn right onto Via Arcisi and the most beautiful part begins. At the beginning, this beautiful road with very few cars gives you a hard time, then the gradient decreases and, advancing a little by jumps in the middle of a low forest that does not prevent you from enjoying a beautiful panorama, you finally arrive at the pretty village of San Gottardo.

The Gotthard begins for one kilometre on a wide but very busy road. This is not the best part. Right at the top, you turn right onto Via Arcisi and the most beautiful part begins. At the beginning, this beautiful road with very few cars gives you a hard time, then the gradient decreases and, advancing a little by jumps in the middle of a low forest that does not prevent you from enjoying a beautiful panorama, you finally arrive at the pretty village of San Gottardo. Welcomed by a beautiful work by local sculptors (a wall bordering the road embellished with very beautiful high reliefs), we cross the village until we reach the church, at which the climb ends.
One star less only for that initial kilometre among the cars. Otherwise a really nice climb. Good asphalt, slopes that are never severe, good visibility and little traffic make the descent exciting.

La Gottarda inizia per un chilometro su strada ampia ma molto trafficata. Non è la parte migliore. Proprio al culmine si svolta a destra per via Arcisi e inizia la parte più bella. All'inizio questa strada bella ma con pochissime auto dà del filo da torcere, poi la pendenza diminuisce e avanzando un po' a salti in mezzo ad un bosco basso che non impedisce di godere di un bellissimo panorama si arriva finalmente alla graziosa località di San Gottardo. Accolti da una bella opera di scultori locali (un muro che costeggia la strada impreziosito da altorilievi molto belli) si attraversa il paese fino ad arrivare alla chiesa, in corrispondenza della quale l'arrampicata finisce.
Una stella in meno solo per quel chilometro iniziale in mezzo alle auto. Per il resto davvero una bella ascesa. Il buon asfalto, le pendenze mai severe, la buona visibilità e il poco traffico rendono entusiasmante la discesa.
