Wat mij betreft een mooie klim, maar het aantal auto’s viel wat tegen. En op deze hele smalle weg vind ik dat persoonlijk niet echt fijn. Het tweede deel na de dam gaat echt van bijna vlak naar 20 procent een paar keer, dus nergens kom je in een ritme. Km 3 en 4 van het eind gaan over gravel en door het bos, maar zijn te doen. De uitzichten voor je zijn vaak prachtig en zeker de laatste twee km, als je er dan nog oog voor hebt. Want die zijn ook echt pittig.
the climb starts in grosio and climbs quickly with some steep ramps. at fusino the val grosina splits, going left towards the malghera hut. it's almost 10 km with very irregular gradients... there are flat sections interspersed with important walls with gradients of up to 20％, especially in the last 3 km it's very hard. on the other hand, the scenery is splendid... this part of the valley is practically unspoilt, not very touristy... finally you arrive at the malghera hut, which has a beautiful church opposite. just before the summit there are about 2 km of flat dirt track, the condition is very good and it is easy to ride on a road bike.
la salita inizia da grosio e sale subito rapidamente con alcune rampe impegantive. a fusino la val grosina si divide andando a sx si va verso il rifugio malghera. sono quasi 10 km con pendenze molto irregolari...ci sono pezzi in piano intervallati da muri importanti con pendenze fino al 20％, soprattutto negli ultimi 3 km si soffre molto. in compenso il paesaggio è splendido...questa parte della valle è praticamente incontaminata, poco turistica...infine si arriva al rifugio malghera che di fronte ha una bella chiesa. poco prima della cima ci sono circa 2 km su sterrato in piano, lo stato è molto buono e si percorre facilmente in bici da corsa.
