The queen of the Little Dolomites, a lady climb to be respected from the first kilometre, I have been tackling it since I was a kid and every time I have had to earn the summit.

The queen of the Little Dolomites, a lady climb to be respected from the first kilometre, I have been tackling it since I was a kid and every time I have had to earn the summit. I have done many climbs (Zoncolan, Mortirolo, Gavia, .), for me it has always been my test and I have coined this label "If you can do Campogrosso well you can do any climb". Road with little traffic and road surface in good condition. Natural scenery from start to finish with several fountains along the way (the last one is at the Guardia refuge after which there is only the Campogrosso refuge at the top). For an average cyclist, recommended gears 34-28/30 if you don't want to get into a crisis, especially in the section before Merendaore and after the refuge alla Guardia. In summer, since many sections are exposed to the sun, I recommend doing it in the morning or evening. Good cycling to all.

La regina delle Piccole Dolomiti, una signora salita da rispettare fin dal primo km, la affronto fin da ragazzino e ogni volta me la sono dovuta guadagnare la cima. Di salite ne ho fatto tante (Zoncolan, Mortirolo, Gavia, .), è sempre stata il mio test e le ho coniato questa etichetta "Se riesci a fare bene Campogrosso puoi fare qualsiasi salita". Strada poco trafficata e con manto stradale in buone condizioni. Paesaggio naturale dall'inizio alla fine con diverse fontane lungo il tragitto (l'ultima è al rifugio Guardia dopodiché c'è solo il rifugio Campogrosso sulla cima). Per un ciclista medio, rapporti consigliati 34-28/30 se non si vuole andare in crisi soprattutto nel tratto prima di Merendaore e dopo il rifugio alla Guardia. D'estate essendo esposta per molti tratti al sole consiglio di farla al mattino o alla sera. Un ultima nota personale, è un peccato che il Giro d'Italia non abbia mai considerato questa salita e questa zona per un passaggio di tappa. Buona pedalata a tutti.
