Panarotta
In 2006 this climb was twinned with the Alpe d'Huez, the legendary climb of the Tour de France. The two in fact share similar features, although Panarotta is slightly longer. It is a stern test for the most experienced cycling enthusiasts who gage their condition on these slopes by fighting against the stopwatch. It is a very popular climb on hot summer days, when the forest’s leafy branches provide shade to the road.
