Terribly steep, the percentages do not feel at all like what it says here. The last 4/5 km you're just standing on the pedals because you're at least up against 12％. It doesn't stop. The views make up for a lot... read more

Verschrikkelijk stijl, de percentages komen gevoelsmatig totaal niet overeen met wat hier staat. De laatste 4/5 km sta je alleen maar op de pedalen omdat je minimaal tegen 12％ aan het oprijden bent. Het houdt niet op. Het uitzicht maakt veel goed

This climb can be divided into three sections, the first with a 2/3 ％ slope, the second 9km with a 5/6 ％ slope, and the last 6km very challenging with an average slope of 9％. Definitely worth the climb to the top where the panorama of the Apuan Alps and Versilia leaves you speechless. On the descent, pay attention to the first stretch where the road surface is not perfect.

Salita che si può dividere in tre tratti, il primo con pendenza dal 2/3 ％ il secondo di 9km con pendenza 5/6 ％ e gli ultimi 6km molto impegnativi con pendenza media del 9％. Sicuramente vale la pena salire fino alla cima dove il panorama sulle Alpi Apuane e sulla Versilia lascia senza parole. In discesa attenzione al primo tratto dove il manto stradale non è perfetto.
