I drove up the route with the gravel bike and treadless tires. Go, but it's a total cramp!

Two recommendations from my experience:
1. Take a MTB
2. Use tires with a lot of profile and little tire pressure

Anything else is no fun. But the route is super awesome and you have a great view!

Amazing descent! Make sure your brakes work! Gravel gets quite loose in places

Never a steep descent but with a very broken and irregular surface so MUST DO - indeed - downhill and with caution unless you have an eMTB or a great desire to suffer. Never excessively steep but very long and very demanding on arms, shoulders and concentration. Stop at some hairpin bends to enjoy the wonderful view of the clean and severe outline of the Stol above you and the valley in front of you. Generous coverage here and diacreto manigo (especially if you do it with a gravel, at least 45mm to be on the safe side).
