Colle Fauniera, located at 2481 m, is also known as Colle dei Morti. The climb from the Demonte side (Valle Stura) is one of the most challenging in the Maritime Alps. It is about 24 km long with a 1700 m difference in altitude. The average gradient of 7% is made tough by the consistency of the effort, with long stretches often between 8% and 10%. The effort is rewarded by the spectacular view, and at the top is the monument to Marco Pantani.

Wonderful valley that climbs from Demonte to the Colle della Fauniera. Green and lush in the lower part, with interesting geological formations, it becomes a beautiful grassy plain in the upper part, to conclude above the Valcavera pass in a gorge among the rocks that seems to have come out of a fantasy tale. Beautiful segment.
