Really tough start, in double digits. It climbs in really hard climbs. I read on the Garmin 19% and it is never quick to update the gradient. Then when it gets back to 10% it looks like a normal climb. Fountain in the square in Ome right on the little terrace of the town hall reachable by bike. Then a second drinking fountain is at about 500m elevation but was closed as I passed through in April. From there on it flattens out quite a bit. Once you reach San Giovanni you can choose where to descend. Toward Iseo, after an initial descent, it climbs again to an altitude of 680m but steady and not hard. On that side nice view but too many romantic motorcycles. A few pebbles invite caution.
Inizio veramente tosto, in doppia cifra. Sale a strappi belli duri. Ho letto sul Garmin 19% e non è mai veloce ad aggiornare la pendenza. Poi quando torna al 10% sembra una salita normale. Fontanella in piazza ad Ome proprio sul terrazzino del municipio raggiungibile in bicicletta. Poi una seconda fontanella si trova a circa 500m di quota ma era chiusa al mio passaggio in aprile. Da lì in poi spiana abbastanza. Giunti a San Giovanni puoi scegliere dove scendere. Verso Iseo, dopo una prima discesa, si sale nuovamente fino a quota 680m ma regolare e non dura. Su quel versante bel panorama ma troppe motociclette romantico. Qualche brecciolino invita alla cautela.
Irregular ascent, made up of very steep steps followed by brief moments of respite.
The final part is particularly easy.
At the top, it is possible to continue to Passo Tre Termini and from there descend towards Lago d'Iseo, or to descend into ValTrompia.
Salita irregolare, fatta a gradoni molto ripidi seguiti da brevi momenti di respiro.
La parte conclusiva è particolarmente facile.
In cima è possibile proseguire verso il Passo Tre Termini e da lì scendere verso il Lago d’Iseo, oppure scendere in ValTrompia.
First part very steep. Then it flattens out a bit. And the last part is almost flat. Nice to take along with a tour from Lake Iseo.
Eerste deel erg steil. Daarna vlakt het iets af. En het laatste deel is zo goed als vlak. Mooi mee te pakken met een rondje vanaf het Iseomeer.
