Ascent of about 5km with 400m of elevation gain all on the road. Slopes that are never excessive, but in the last section they are certainly more demanding. Enjoyable climb depending on the traffic you find.

Very nice walk, lots of protected cycle paths along the rivers or the lake. Very pleasant.

ONLY FOR TRAINED LEGS, average slope of 10% some tears over 20!! It seems to be at the Mortirolo, once at the top the landscape repays the effort made. I recommend a visit to the Valentino park, it's worth it, I found it cold and went down immediately. 💪👍💯
