The road to the pass is gravel and dirt (the last 7 km). Usually impassable in winters. The average gradient to the summit is 10% with some sections up to 18%. Part of it (up to Triangia at 800 m/2623 ft) was once climbed in the Tour of Italy. The road is usually impassable from October to June (weather permitting).
