to be done early in the morning. Hares and partridges can be encountered. The climb from Alghero, for the first 10 km, which is very pedalable, is called Scala Piccada and is the route of an uphill race for cars.

da fare al mattino, presto. Si possono incontrare lepri e pernici. La salita da Alghero , per i primi 10 km ,molto pedalabili, si chiama Scala Piccada ed è il percorso di una gara in salita per auto.

A very long but uneven climb, with no major gradients; the scenery is beautiful and a few hairpin bends allow you to admire the sea, a little traffic on the way out of Alghero but then it gets much less; recently there was a traffic light due to roadworks.

Salita molto lunga ma irregolare, senza pendenze importanti; il paesaggio è bello e qualche tornante vi permetterà di ammirare il mare, un po' di traffico in uscita da Alghero ma poi si limita parecchio; recentemente c'era un semaforo per lavori in corso.
