Very scenic. The lower part is not in bad condition at all, in fact it is cemented. They have also put up a sign at every hairpin bend (26) from Grono to S. Maria. Actually from the village to the Monti there are still four more, so that would be 30 in total.... read more

Challenging climb in places but very short, I recommend doing it at least once.

Salita a tratti impegnativa ma molto corta, consiglio di farla almeno una volta.

Spectacular but challenging climb especially in the first part. It'was the scene of a stage of the Tour de Suisse 2025

Salita spettacolare ma impegnativa soprattutto nella prima parte. E' stata teatro di una tappa del Tour de Suisse 2025

Molto panoramica. La parte in basso non è affatto in cattive condizioni, anzi è cementata. Hanno anche messo un cartello a ogni tornante (26) da Grono a s.Maria. In realtà dal paese ai Monti ce ne sono ancora 4, per cui in totale sarebbero 30.
