The ascent is regular and the gradient moderate, and the road is mostly shaded, making it a good option especially in the warmer months. The passage through the village of Tatti is the most scenic section, in addition to a few vantage points where the trees thin out.

The ascent is regular and the gradient moderate, and the road is mostly shaded, making it a good option especially in the warmer months. The passage through the village of Tatti is the most scenic section, in addition to a few vantage points where the trees thin out.
Once past the first houses, there is a drinking fountain on the right. The asphalt is good along almost the entire climb, on the contrary, the descent towards Prata is characterised by a decidedly shabby road surface. I recommend it to those in the area who are not looking for difficult climbs (such as the one to Roccatederighi or even more so the Peruzzo wall).

L'ascesa è regolare e la pendenza moderata, la strada è per la maggior parte ombreggiata, cosa che la rende una valida opzione soprattutto nei mesi più caldi. Il passaggio per il paese di Tatti è il tratto più scenografico, in aggiunta a qualche punto panoramico dove gli alberi si diradano.
Superate le prime case, sulla destra si trova una fontanella. L'asfalto è buono lungo quasi tutta la salita, al contrario la discesa verso Prata è caratterizzata da un manto stradale decisamente malandato. La consiglio a chi è in zona e non cerca salite impegnative (come quella per Roccatederighi o ancor di più il muro di Peruzzo).
