Beautiful views of the sea and the hills and mountains. After yet another bend, you see the village of Ventiseri with its church. Two more somewhat steeper hairpins and you are there. The summit is at the cross and cemetery but I would stop next time at the more attractive church square. From the summit you can see Lake Palo at Travo. Descending via other side.

This is the climb to Ventiseri from Piediquarcio which actually has a very good road surface. I found this road one of the most beautiful I have driven in Corsica. At the junction with D745, turn left for last part of the climb to Serra-di-Fiumorbo from Mignataja.
Erg mooie afwisselende klim die nergens zwaar is. Wel zeer slecht wegdek. Mooie vergezichten op de zee en op de heuvels en bergen. Na de zoveelste bocht zie je het dorp Ventiseri liggen met de kerk. Nog 2 wat steilere haarspeldbochten en je bent er. De top is bij het kruis en het kerkhof maar ik zou een volgende keer stoppen bij het aantrekkelijkere kerkplein. Vanaf de top zie je het meer van Palo bij Travo liggen. Afgedaald via andere kant. Dit is de klim naar Ventiseri vanuit Piediquarcio die juist een heel goed wegdek heeft. Ik vond deze weg een van de mooiste die ik op Corsica gereden heb. Bij de kruising met de D745 links afgeslagen voor laatste deel van de klim naar Serra-di-Fiumorbo vanuit Mignataja.
Nice, rolling climb, good view, over the plain. Damaged surface. Cows and wild bulls🐂 not inclined to give way. No traffic. Fountain in village and café open in summer.

Montée sympa et bien roulante,belle vue, sur la plaine. Revêtement abîmé. Vaches et taureaux🐂 sauvages peu enclin à céder le passage. Circulation nulle. Fontaine au village et café ouvert l'été.
