Salita alternativa a quella via Fonte Cerreto per Campo Imperatore; la strada è con pochissimo traffico, in alcuni punti le pendenze sono considerevoli. Fino a Filetto la strada è a due corsie, poi diventa ad una corsia fino all'incrocio con la strada principale per il Gran Sasso. Verso la fine della salita c'è il laghetto di Paganica.
