The "easy" side of the toughest pass in Europe, but one must not be fooled by this and treat the climb with all the respect it deserves, both in terms of physical preparation and choice of gears.
The first sector, ideally up to -4.5 kilometres from the summit, is on a wide road with wide hairpin bends and regular gradients, demanding but not prohibitive; it is essential to tackle this section of the climb by managing your energy very well and without overdoing it, otherwise your strength will be lacking in the nastier section.
At the end of this sector, near the ski lifts, the gradients soften and you can catch your breath, then the road narrows and steepens: these are the last 3 km and they will seem endless

Lato "facile" del colle più duro d'Europa, ma non bisogna lasciarsi ingannare da questo e trattare la salita con tutto il rispetto che merita, sia a livello di preparazione fisica che di scelta di rapporti.
Il primo settore, idealmente fino a -4,5 Km dalla vetta, si snoda su strada larga e che con ampi tornanti e pendenze regolari, impegnative ma non proibitive; è fondamentale affrontare questo tratto di salita gestendo molto bene le energie e senza strafare, altrimenti le forze mancheranno nel tratto più cattivo.
Terminato questo settore, nei pressi degli impianti sciistici, le pendenze si addolciscono e si può riprendere fiato poi la strada si restringe e si impenna: sono gli ultimi 3 Km e sembreranno infiniti

Legendary Climb. From Sutrio (lighter route, than from Ovaro). This montaion is a beast. The last kilometres is a unlimited suffering. The views from the top is beautiful.
