A demanding but rideable climb that has some stretches where you can take a break and possibly relaunch, the final part is a long falsopiano that can be challenging if you find a headwind as is often the case with the mistral. The scenery is pleasant and at the top you will find a nice refreshment point with a kiosk that opens only sporadically on weekends, but there are no alternatives for the descent (on asphalt); you will have to be very careful on the descent because the road, although it has little or no traffic, is rather narrow and you will only find moderate traffic on weekends on fine spring/summer days; the quality of the asphalt is decent, there are no major potholes but you will often find dirt.

Una salita impegnativa ma pedalabile che ha alcuni tratti in cui si può rifiatare ed eventualmente rilanciare, la parte finale è un lungo falsopiano che può essere impegnativo se troverete del vento contrario come spesso succede con il maestrale. Il paesaggio è piacevole ed arrivati in cima troverete un bel punto ristoro con un chiosco che però apre solo sporadicamente il fine settimana, non ci sono alternative per la discesa (su asfalto); Dovrete fare molta attenzione in discesa perchè la strada anche se è poco o nulla trafficata è piuttosto stretta e potrete trovare un moderato traffico solamente il fine settimana nelle belle giornate primaverili/estive; la qualità dell'asfalto è discreta, non ci sono buche importanti ma spesso troverete dello sporco.
