| Cartography |
|
Today I leave Primolano alone to reach Passo Manghen.
Yes, I know, we are almost in November, but given the temperatures we can still make bike rides at altitudes above 2000 meters above sea level. , incredible.
The first 20 km are on the Brenta cycle path, slightly uphill (starting at an altitude of 200 and in Borgo Valsugana they are around 350 meters).
From here begins the 22 km that lead to the Manghen pass. The first 15 km have some sections that touch 9% gradient, most of them are around 7% on average, it is the last 7 km that the road becomes challenging, it never goes below 9% -10% with sections even at 13%.
The last kilometers of the climb are certainly the most suggestive, at a certain point you realize that you are in a kind of natural amphitheater with an excellent view on the road that climbs towards the pass (I think it would offer an incredible spectacle in the case of a passage of the tour of Italy).
Along the entire route there is excellent signposting for cyclists, about every 2-3 km there is a sign showing the road already taken and the one still to be taken for the pass with the% gradient in the next section; never seen such detailed signage.
I reach the pass around 13.30, the temperature of about 12 ° C above 2000 meters surprises me given the period; at the top there is a hut, but it is closed, I just have to start the long descent.

If you take this tour at the same time of the year, I would like to point out that after 3:00 pm the stretch on the cycle path from Borgo Valsugana to Primolano is largely in the shade. Although it hasn’t rained, the road is wet and slimy.
