Stories, information and comments from Valico di Valcava climbers

Story by Pascal Boone from , Belgium, submitted on 29/07/2012

Nice climb from Torre de Busi - small road and nice view. Everything normal and under control until 3km from the top - then appears the 18% sign giving this climb a very tough edge.

Safe and broad descent on the other side.
