I add one star in respect to mircoc's review, because I found it challenging and full of variation, with a few stretches to breathe in and an average gradient that is nonetheless considerable. Compared to the Luvigliano side, it seemed less difficult to me, although certain stretches without bends are really violent.

I do not have any devices with me for measuring gradients, but on a hunch I would say that the maximum is less on the Luvigliano side, whose central section is really heavy, while on this side the difficulties are more distributed. But this is a very subjective impression.
High marks for the excellent asphalt and beautiful views. Be careful in summer, as there are plenty of sunny stretches. Descent certainly much easier than from Luvigliano.

Aggiungo una stelletta rispetta alla recensione di mircoc, perchè l'ho trovata impegnativa e ricca di variazioni, con qualche tratto per respirare e una pendenza media comunque ragguardevole.
Rispetto al lato di Luvigliano mi è sembrata meno difficile, anche se certi strattoni privi di curve sono davvero violenti.
Non ho con me dispositivi per la misurazione delle pendenze, però a sensazione direi che la massima è inferiore al lato di Luvigliano, il cui tratto centrale risulta davvero pesante, mentre da questo versante le difficoltà sono più distribuite. Ma si tratta di un'impressione molto soggettiva.
Voto alto per l'ottimo asfalto e per i bei panorami. Attenzione d'estate che i tratti esposti al sole non mancano. Discesa sicuramente molto più agevole che da Luvigliano.

2 very steep sections (19%). Short but deadly ascent if taken at a high pace. From the restaurant at the top, there are beautiful views of the countryside below.

2 tratti ripidissimi (19%). Ascesa breve ma micidiale se presa ad alti ritmi. Dal Ristorante in cima si hanno delle belle vedute sulla campagna sottostante.
