A good thrashing! One of the last hills of the Nine Hills. Felt worse than the Barbotto probably because it comes at the end. Very exposed to the sun. Great save the drinking fountain at the top. Average slope not to be watched because the rips make it extremely harder

Great climb with some steep parts (beginning and end) and nice views, part of the nine cols from the historic Nove Colli granfondo - a must in the area with no so great asphalt in certain parts (pretty common in the region).
