Very beautiful, well worth the effort. Be careful in the final stretch after Acero because the road is narrow, open to the valley with an exceptional panorama, but overhanging and without protection. The sign for the deviation x Acero is wrong, there are not 3km to go, but 6...bring water, we saw no fountains. Done yesterday with a 34/30... read more

Molto bella, vale la fatica. Fare attenzione nel tratto terminale dopo Acero perché strada stretta, aperta sulla valle con panorama eccezionale , ma a strapiombo e senza protezioni. Il cartello della deviazione x Acero è sbagliato, non mancano 3km, ma 6...portatevi acqua, non abbiamo visto fontane. Fatta ieri con un 34/30
