Two-sided climb, beautiful and always demanding. From the bottom of the valley to Torrio, it runs through a forest of chestnut trees, some centuries old; always shady with a poor road surface. From Torrio the woods become beech and gradually thin out with large areas exposed to the sun. As you ascend, the landscape of the Val d'Aveto reveals itself, while the climb takes your breath away. To be tackled if well prepared!... read more

Two-sided climb, beautiful and always demanding. From the bottom of the valley to Torrio, it runs through a forest of chestnut trees, some centuries old; always shady with a poor road surface.
From Torrio the woods become beech and gradually thin out with large areas exposed to the sun. As you ascend, the landscape of the Val d'Aveto reveals itself, while the climb takes your breath away. To be tackled if well prepared!

Salita a due facce, bellissima e sempre impegnativa. Dal fondo valle fino a Torrio si sviluppa in un bosco di castagni, alcuni secolari; sempre ombreggiata con fondo stradale scadente.
Da Torrio i boschi diventato di faggi e man mano si diradano con ampie zone esposte al sole. Mentre si sale il paesaggio sulla val d'Aveto si svela, mentre la salita toglie il fiato. Da affrontare se ben preparati!
