It's a relatively short and gentle climb with lots of hairpin turns. Good tarmac at the time of writing, I had the pleasure of attempting this climb in October on a quiet morning with low traffic. Great views of Val Tidone. Once you arrive in Pometo you can continue further on to get to Passo Del Carmine,... read more

Along the Val Tidone, just beyond Nibbiano, the climb to Pometo begins. Also known as the "little Stelvio", because of the sequence of hairpin bends but certainly not because of the low gradient. It is pleasant to tackle, does not present any jumps or difficulties and you can enjoy the view of Lake Molato (artificial, created by the dam of the same name and open to visitors).

Lungo la Val Tidone, poco oltre Nibbiano, parte la salita a Pometo. Conosciuta anche come il "piccolo Stelvio", per la sequenza di tornanti ma non certo per la scarsa pendenza. E' gradevole da affrontare, non presenta strappi o difficoltà e si gode della vista del Lago di Molato (artificiale, creato dalla diga omonima e visitabile).
