The ascent leading to the pass of Aprica is technically quite easy and you can tackle it after having climbed the Teglio one, if you want to do a more demanding tour. The Giro dItalia has faced it several times but it never turned out to be crucial. The road is broad with wide turns. you go up for about 12 km with an average gradient slightly above 6. Kilometres are marked by road signs clearly showing the distance to the pass. The road is very busy, especially at weekends, and it is advisable to be careful. For well trained cyclists during the climb there are some detours to access more demanding roads, such as those towards Santa Cristina and San Rocco.
