Cycled in combination with the beautiful Selvino. After descending the latter, this climb suddenly starts there on the left with thick 12％. After a little flatter for a while, you get to work with spurs up to 20％...on extremely moderate tarmac. After the village, the climb actually continues (a lot flatter). Nice views. ... read more

Short but very hard climb, deserves in the many loop rides that can be done in the area as a hard tear.

Salita breve ma durissima, merita nei numerosi giri ad anello che si possono fare in zona come strappo duro.

Discovered by chance recently, it is a beautiful, short but very demanding climb with two very demanding sections. practically deserted, it crosses a hidden valley, often remaining in the woods with occasional beautiful views over the valley. the road surface is a little damaged in places but with a strip of road rebuilt on the left.

scoperta per caso recentemente è una salita bellissima, corta ma molto impegnativa che fa respirare poco e con 2 tratti molto impegnativi. praticamente deserta attraversa una valle nascosta rimanendo spesso nel bosco con ogni tanto una bella vista sulla valle. manto stradale un pò rovinato in alcuni punti ma con una striscia rifatta sulla sx.

Gefietst in combinatie met de mooie Selvino. Na afdaling van deze laatste, start deze klim er opeens aan de linkerkant met dikke 12％. Na even wat vlakker, mag je aan de bak met uitlopers tot 20％…op uiterst matig asfalt. Na het dorp loopt de klim in feite (een stuk vlakker) door. Mooie uitzichten.

I used to do it years ago with an Mb. Now that I'm 80 I do it with an Mbslick in about 50 min.
After the cemetery of Ambriola it becomes hard and softens about 1.5km before Trafficanti (S.Erasmo). The valley is very narrow and all in the shade so no views until the church of S.Erasmo which has a very nice view. Virtually no traffic. Decent road surface.

La facevo anni fa con la Mb. Ora che ho 80 anni la faccio con una Mbslick in circa 50 min.
Dopo il cimitero di Ambriola diventa dura e si addolcisce circa 1.5km prima di Trafficanti (S.Erasmo). La valle è strettissima e tutta in ombra quindi niente panorami fino alla chiesa di S.Erasmo che ha una vista molto bella. Traffico praticamente nullo. Manto stradale decente.
