Quiet climb scenically worth doing out of season for otherwise too much traffic

Salita tranquilla panoramicamente valida vale la pena farla fuori stagione per altrimenti troppo trafficata

At first, grey tarmac as usual. Then a wonderful view of a country village that seems busy with honey and bees. Then you split a green field in two with your bike and you feel like Heidi on a race bike. Finally, a shady bike path with sort of hairpins (!) and a steep +10%. Very varied climb, 3 scenarios in one. May be busy in summer. A bit different from routine.
