Tough climb but the arrival at the malga repays the effort. First kilometres that warm the legs with an average gradient of around 8/9% up to Pianture. There we face the first insidia: a wall of 200/250 metres at 17/20%. 300/400 metres to rest and then begins a long stretch almost always around 12% with peaks in the final part at 15%. At that point the road becomes easy and rideable before encountering a series of demanding hairpin bends. Fortunately, their rapid succession leaves room for brief moments of recovery. You then arrive at altitude, the forest giving way to the pastureland of the malga, about 1 km of road at 10% before arriving at the coveted malga. Very little traffic. Road not in good condition: no problems on the ascent but care must be taken on the descent.

Salita dura ma l’arrivo alla malga ripaga gli sforzi. Primi km che scaldano le gambe con pendenza media intorno all’8/9% fino a Pianture. Lì si affrontala prima insidia: un muro di 200/250 mt al 17/20%. 300/400 mt per rifiatare e poi inizia un lungo tratto quasi sempre intorno al 12% con punte nella parte finale al 15%. A quel punto la strada si fa facile e pedalabile prima di incontrare una serie di tornanti impegnativi. Per fortuna la loro rapida successione lascia pazio a brevi momenti di recupero. Si arriva quindi in quota, il bosco lascia spazio al pascolo della malga, circa 1 km di strada al 10% prima di arrivare all’agognata malga. Pochissimo traffico. Strada non in buone condizioni: nessun problema in salita ma bisogna lrestare attenzione in discesa.

This climb is so beautiful! You can ride in the raw nature of the place, quietly, in peace.
Well, this is a stgrong one and some pikes are very hard, especially one in the first is like a wall, but with a 34/32, in your road bike, you can climb without so much problem.

This is perhaps the most beautiful climb of the Alpago! Only for real climbers! The first stretch up to the beautiful village of Pianture is easy. Then there's the "wall of tears", where you arrive at gradients of 22/23%. Then the road climbs into the woods and there are still many hard miles to go. In the last stretch you cross the pastures of Mezzomiglio, until you reach the malga. Enchanting place and great view!

Questa è forse la più bella salita dell'Alpago! Solo per veri scalatori! Il primo tratto fino al bel paesino di Pianture è facile. Poi c'è il "muro del pianto", dove si arriva a pendenze del 22/23%. Poi la strada si inerpica nel bosco e mancano ancora tanti duri km. Nell'ultimo tratto si attraversano i pascoli di Mezzomiglio, fino ad arrivare alla malga. Luogo incantevole e gran panorama!
