The road surface to Bocca di a Battaglia has been completely renewed - as of September 2023 - and can be ridden perfectly even with the most delicate racing bike tires.

Was there in June 2022 and the road on the north side is now a pothole. Lots of sand and gravel, especially in the curves, made the descent a very unpleasant experience. Nevertheless, the view of the sea is sensational. It helps to plan the route so that you go uphill on the north side and then down on the south side.

You cycle long inland and gradually climb the pass. The panorama here at 1099m is outstanding. A break in the mountain hut with the magnificent view pays for the climb and strengthens for the descent.
