Description
A very steep climb in the Ponticella area. Double-digit gradients that take your breath away, combined with a fortunately short stretch of slightly damaged asphalt, give this "ramp" a level of difficulty that can only be mastered by those with a good training base. However, the view at the top is well worth it. If you want to continue after the top, you have to cross a gravel area; if it has rained recently, it is not advisable, better turn back.
