Via Costa Piana
A long, very steep climb above Vogorno in Ticino. The hardest 500 metres average 23.9% and come almost at once, before your legs have settled. Expect 66 to 111 minutes. At 21.0 TEP it is harder than 95% of the climbs in the catalogue. South-facing, so it is hot in summer and one of the first to clear of snow. On the SAC scale it is mountain hiking, with uneven ground that asks for some care.
