Mottolino from Passo di Eira

At just 1.7km, Mottolino from Passo di Eira is short but deceptively intense — 177m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. Averaging 10.3%, the road kicks to 17.3% at its steepest — a brutal pitch that demands respect. The 2 hairpin turns break up the climb, each one revealing a new perspective on the road ahead. At 2,387m, the summit rises above the treeline into an exposed, often windswept landscape. Located in Lombardy, Italy.
