Attempted once, rejected with loss after 80 metres (the easiest). The definition of the Wall is quite apt, gradients that make climbing almost impossible. If you are not Contador, who put on a show here during the 2014 Tirreno-Adriatico, better to avoid it and climb from the other side, the main road.

Tentata una volta, respinto con perdite dopo 80 metri (i più facili). La definizione di Muro è quantomai azzeccata, pendenze che rendono salire quasi impossibile. Se non siete Contador, che qui diede spettacolo durante la Tirreno-Adriatico del 2014, meglio evitare e salire dall'altro versante, quello della strada principale. Se proprio si vuole fare un tentativo, d'obbligo o quasi una MTB, abbinata a buone capacità di guida del mezzo.
