It's the same climb that leads to the Alto Venda agritourism (so it has the tremendous initial section of Via Sassoni) but then at Cristo instead of continuing to the agritourism you turn right towards the water spring and then descend Via Forestana. Not to be overlooked is an extreme jump of a few dozen metres above 15％, but overall it is smoother than its twin sister at the top.

It's the same climb that leads to the Alto Venda agritourism (so it has the tremendous initial section of Via Sassoni) but then at Cristo instead of continuing to the agritourism you turn right towards the water spring and then descend Via Forestana. Not to be overlooked is an extreme jump of a few dozen metres above 15％, but overall it is smoother than its twin sister at the top. Traffic and asphalt are good, but the gradient and the bends advise against taking too much confidence going downhill.

E' la stessa salita che porta all'agriturismo Alto Venda (quindi presenta il tremendo tratto iniziale di Via Sassoni) ma poi al Cristo invece che proseguire per l'agriturismo si volta a destra verso la sorgente d'acqua per poi scendere da Via Forestana. Da non trascurare un estremo salto di qualche decina di metri sopra il 15％, ma nel complesso è più morbida della gemella che arriva in cima. Traffico e asfalto sono buoni, ma la pendenza e le curve sconsigliano di prendersi troppe confidenze in discesa.
