Monte Bondone from Ponte Oliveti

The SP rises 27.6km through wooded valleys and open mountainside, gaining 1,409m to 1,651m. The average gradient of 5.1% disguises ramps of 13% — the kind of gradient that turns plans into prayers. 12 hairpins punctuate the ascent, offering brief respite in the corners before the gradient bites again. The road reaches 1,651m — high enough to feel the altitude on tired legs. Located in Trentino-Alto Adige, Italy.
