La salita parte dolcemente dal letto del torrente Camastra su tracciato nuovo. Dopo circa 2 km, superando una rotonda a destra, breve rampa al 14％ per ritornare sul vecchio tracciato della statale. Di lì la salita prosegue regolare con ampi tornanti che attraversano Laurenzana. Oltrepassato il paese troviamo 2 km con pendenze in doppia cifra, per poi proseguire in modo regolare fino al valico.
