Nice climb starting in Dogna, on the Alpe Adria bike route. The first kilometers, which run alongside the Dogna stream, are more treacherous than they appear from the altimetry, as they follow the valley orography and are therefore made up of numerous small tears interspersed with almost flat stretches.

Nice climb starting in Dogna, on the Alpe Adria bike route. The first kilometers, which run alongside the Dogna stream, are more treacherous than they appear from the altimetry, as they follow the valley orography and are therefore made up of numerous small tears interspersed with almost flat stretches.
From kilometer 9 to kilometer 13 the road becomes very easy, it is practically a long falsopiano: once this phase is over, the last 4 km begin, which are challenging but not impossible, thanks to the many hairpin bends that help to relaunch the'pace. The landscape here is very beautiful, climbing between rocks in a wild mountain setting. When you reach the top, the asphalt road ends: by mountain bike, you can descend to Malga Saisera and then to Valbruna and Tarvisio; by road bike, you have to descend from where you climbed. Despite this, a very beautiful and recommended climb.

Bella salita che parte da Dogna, sul percorso della ciclabile Alpe Adria. I primi chilometri, che corrono accanto al torrente Dogna, sono più insidiosi di quanto appaia dall'altimetria, in quanto seguono l'orografia della valle e sono quindi formati da numerosi strappetti intervallati da tratti quasi pianeggianti.
Dal chilometro 9 a quello 13 la strada diventa molto facile, è praticamente un lungo falsopiano: terminata questa fase iniziano gli ultimi 4 km, che sono impegnativi ma non impossibili, grazie ai molti tornanti che aiutano a rilanciare l'andatura. Il paesaggio qui è molto bello, si sale tra le rocce in un contesto di montagna selvaggia. Arrivati in cima, la strada asfaltata finisce: in mountain bike, si può scendere a Malga Saisera e poi a Valbruna e Tarvisio; in bici da corsa, bisogna scendere da dove si è saliti. Malgrado questo, una salita molto bella e consigliata.
