Gravel fans get their money's worth here, or reach their limits. Ideally, you take them under the wheels with a large portion of courage and humor and see them as a dress rehearsal in front of the legendary Ligurian border ridge road.
Coarse gravel, hairpin bends and some steep inclines require full attention along the entire route. This section runs mainly above 2000m altitude, you are in high alpine terrain. Far and wide there is no trace of settlements, even if only in the form of huts.
