A very even and pleasant driveway. The asphalt is of good quality, the traffic moderate. In a few places there is a flattening to catch your breath. From Ronzo-Chienis, it can surprise you with sections with a gradient of 12%. On the downside, practically all the ride in full sun.... read more

A very even and pleasant driveway. The asphalt is of good quality, the traffic moderate.
In a few places there is a flattening to catch your breath. From Ronzo-Chienis, it can surprise you with sections with a gradient of 12%.
On the downside, practically all the ride in full sun.

Bardzo równy i przyjemny podjazd. Asfalt jest dobrej jakości, ruch umiarkowany.
W kilku miejscach jest wypłaszczenie, żeby złapać oddech. Od Ronzo-Chienis może zaskoczyć odcinkami z nachyleniem 12%.
Z minusów, praktycznie cały czas jazda w pełnym słońcu.

Relatively demanding. Good tarmac. Unfortunately in full sun during the day what makes climbing difficult. Nevertheless, good climb.

Climb starts at roundabout on the busy SS240 in Loppio where you turn into the Valle di Gresta, known for organic agriculture and horticulture thanks to favourable microclimatic conditions due to its position as a kind of "amphitheatre" on a hill.
The wide road with excellent tarmac consequently winds upwards along the vineyards, fields and meadows nestled between the rock faces. You cycle through or past picturesque little villages centralised around the church tower.
Last part (also part of the Giro 2023 route) after cycling through the elongated Ronzo-Chienis has an irregular gradient with a +10% kilometre section thv Pra del Lac.
Top is green plateau with grooming Albergo (cafe/restaurant).
Practical: 1 short tunnel, traffic decreases towards the top, heavy freight not allowed, clear hairpin bends scattered along the route. Mileposts from 0 (start) to 15 (summit).
Start in Loppio can be reached from Torbole -Nago via car-free signposted cycling route next to the congested SS240 (Lake Garda towards Brennerautostrade).

Beautiful sunny climb where you can also catch the Passo St Barbara and the Passo di Monte Faé as extras!

Klim start aan rotonde op de drukke SS240 in Loppio waar je de Valle di Gresta opdraait die gekend staat voor biologische land- en tuinbouw dankzij de gunstige microklimaat omstandigheden door zijn ligging als een soort "amfitheater" op een heuvel.
De brede weg met prima asfalt slingert zich bijgevolg omhoog langs de wijngaarden, akkers en weides gelegen tussen de rotswanden. Je fietst door of langs pittoreske kleine dorpjes gecentraliseerd rond de kerktoren.
Laatste deel (ook deel uitmakend van parcours Giro 2023), na het doorfietsen van het langgerekte Ronzo-Chienis, heeft een onregelmatig stijgingsverloop met thv. Pra del Lac een + 10% kilometersectie.
Top is groen plateau met verzorgt Albergo (cafe/restaurant).
Praktisch: 1 korte tunnel, verkeer neemt af naar de top toe, zwaar vrachtvervoer niet toegelaten, overzichtelijke haarspeldbochten verspreid over de route. Kilometerpalen van 0 (start) tot 15 (top).
Start in Loppio is vanuit Torbole -Nago bereikbaar via autovrije bewegwijzerde fietsroute naast de overdrukke SS240 (Gardameer richting Brennerautostrade).

Mooie zonnige klim waar je ook nog als extra de Passo St Barbara en de Passo di Monte Faé kan meepikken!

Wonderful climb which is regularly, but also a few times, very steep. Especially in the 2nd part, there are many parts of 10-13% or more, so you better not start too fast. Very beautiful scenery up between the mountains. In terms of traffic, it is not too bad, but people do take cyclists into account.

Prachtige klim die regelmatig, maar ook een paar keer goed steil is. Zeker in het 2e deel zijn er veel stukken van 10-13% of meer, dus je kan beter niet te snel van start gaan. Erg mooie omgeving tussen de bergen door omhoog. Qua verkeersdrukte redelijk te doen, men houdt wel rekening met fietsers. Gefietst met 35 graden maar veel stukken schaduw op de klim.

This is a cool climb, both the variant from Loppio - very nice landscape and a few nice villages - and from Villa Lagarina - sometimes with a view to Lake Garda.
In the area there is much more 'beautiful stuff', for example Prato di Nago (from Torbole, very steep). Or, really beautiful to Bocca di Navene (from Mori via Brentonico, San Valention, Rifugio Graziani for good espresso. Back via Corne and Chizzola).

Dit is een gave klim, zowel de variant vanuit Loppio - erg mooi landschap en een paar leuke dorpjes - als vanuit Villa Lagarina - met soms een doorkijkje naar het Gardameer.
In de omgeving ligt nog veel meer 'mooi spul', bijvoorbeeld Prato di Nago (vanuit Torbole, loei stijl). Of, werkelijk schitterend naar Bocca di Navene (vanuit Mori via Brentonico, San Valention, Rifugio Graziani voor lekkere espresso. Terug via Corne en Chizzola).
