The first part of the climb is on a pedalable falsopiano, ideal for finding rhythm and preparing for the more demanding part. After passing Auronzo after about fifteen kilometres, the climb begins to get crunchy: gradients that remain in the double digits with peaks at 12-13% on prolonged stretches.

After passing Auronzo after about fifteen kilometres, the climb begins to get crunchy: gradients that remain in the double digits with peaks at 12-13% on prolonged stretches.

The asphalt is in excellent condition and the light traffic (early May) makes the climb more enjoyable. The panorama amply repays the effort, with spectacular views of the Dolomites. With a short diversions, it is possible to reach Lake Misurina, an excellent spot for a break or a few photos before the last climb to the pass.

La prima parte della si sviluppa su un falsopiano pedalabile, ideale per trovare ritmo e prepararsi alla parte più impegnativa. Superato Auronzo dopo una quindicina di km la salita inizia a farsi croccante : pendenze che si mantengono sulla doppia cifra con punte al 12-13% su tratti prolungati.

L’asfalto è in ottime condizioni e il traffico contenuto (inizio maggio) rende la scalata più godibile. Il panorama ripaga ampiamente la fatica, con scorci spettacolari sulle Dolomiti. Con una breve deviazione è possibile raggiungere il Lago di Misurina, ottimo spot per una sosta o qualche foto prima dell’ultimo strappo verso il passo.

Used as a run-up to the Tre Cime di Laveredo. Long false flat, but the stretch up to the turn-off towards Cortina d'Ampezzo is quite tough. Asphalt in fine condition and little traffic.

Gebruikt als aanloop richting de Tre Cime di Laveredo. Lang vals plat, maar het stuk tot de afslag richting Cortina d'Ampezzo is vrij pittig. Asfalt in prima staat en weinig verkeer.
