I made it all the way to Prati di Fascia, where the road then descends toward Case Cornua (86% of the climb); the last stretch isn’t worth it—the pavement is in terrible shape, and at the top there’s nothing but the noise of cell towers, with a view identical to the one below. It’s a long climb, fascinating because it’s just a stone’s throw from the city. There’s little shade, but the open views are stunning—the vista of the Port of Genoa is truly unique.

I made it all the way to Prati di Fascia, where the road then descends toward Case Cornua (86% of the climb); the last stretch isn’t worth it—the pavement is in terrible shape, and at the top there’s nothing but the noise of cell towers, with a view identical to the one below. It’s a long climb, fascinating because it’s just a stone’s throw from the city. There’s little shade, but the open views are stunning—the vista of the Port of Genoa is truly unique. It’s also worth heading down toward Case Cornua—you often come across horses grazing right in the middle of the road. I climbed it on a sunny Friday morning in July: few cars, lots of cicadas, and a bird of prey circling overhead, perhaps hoping I’d keel over from the heat!

Sono arrivato sino ai Prati di Fascia dove poi si scende verso Case Cornua (86% della salita), l'ultimo pezzo non merita, l'asfalto è iper rovinato e in cima solo rumore di antenne con un panorama identico a sotto. Salita lunga, affascinante perché a due passi dalla città, poca ombra ma vista aperta e panorami bellissimi, la prospettiva sul porto di Genova è unica. Vale la pena anche scendere verso Case Cornua, spesso si incontrano cavalli al pascolo in mezzo alla strada. Salito in un assolato venerdì mattina di luglio, poche macchine, tante cicale e un rapace che girava sulla mia testa, forse sperando che schiattassi dal caldo!

Nice and steep!

Beautiful views and very challenging category 1, but quite doable, even with a 'non climbing bike'.

Lekker steil!

Mooie uitzichten en heel uitdagende categorie 1, maar best te doen, zelfs met een ‘niet klimfiets’.
