Beautiful climb with an average of about 7% and numerous switchbacks that allow recovery. The exposure is south, so probably a little hot in summer. The arrival is Arcumeggia, a painted town.

Enchanting climb: tough but rather constant slope, the numerous hairpin bends allow for progressively more and more breathtaking views as you climb towards Arcumeggia. Well tree-lined and with little traffic, it is not difficult to understand why Ivan Basso included it among his favourites.
