Very characteristic road in military style, long straights and gentle hairpin bends regulate the fantastic ascent, including the 2 tunnels of living rock at the top of the arrival of the Fraele towers.

Small, quiet and higher street. Recommended if you want to come from Bormio to the Torri di Fraele serpentine.

It is one of the alternative routes to go up to Lake Cancano from Valdidentro. If you leave from Bormio, this alternative is the first one you have on the route.
The road is narrow and rough. The section is hard, especially the straight that exists once the 3 tornanti that are at the beginning have been overcome. On a hot day, the sun also shines because there are no trees covering the road. Likewise, the views over the valley are good.
