    If in the last few decades the hamlet of Plan di Montecampione has entered a deep tourist crisis, an imposing statue by Marco Pantani makes it a must for those who cycle. In the history of professional cycling, Plan di Montecampione is linked to the legendary Pantani-Tonkov challenge during the nineteenth stage of the 1998 Giro.

    Montecampione has dedicated a dutiful tribute to Marco Pantani, the unforgettable cycling champion, to commemorate the legendary climb of June 4, 1998. After a long period of work, the project has finally been completed. On 26 June 2021, an imposing 6-metre-high statue was inaugurated at Plan di Montecampione. The event saw the participation of various authorities, numerous enthusiasts and Tonina Belletti, the mother of the "Pirate".

    Road From the lake to the statue of Pantani, in the same state as the hotels at an altitude of 1800m... Abandoned to itself, full of holes and patched up with gravel. Not suitable for bdc.

    Prepare for a challenging racebike ascent on the Montecampione Climb from Pisogne, a difficult route spanning 32.3 miles (51.9 km). You will gain a substantial 5282 feet (1610 metres) in elevation, typically taking around 3 hours and 27 minutes to complete. As you pedal, the landscape shifts from dense woods to open green meadows, offering glimpses of Lake Iseo below. The climb is known for its steep gradients, pushing you upwards through varied terrain. Near the summit, you will pass the impressive Statue of Marco Pantani, a landmark commemorating a legendary ride. From the top, panoramic views stretch out, potentially reaching the distant Alps.

    Before you set out, be aware that road conditions can change as you ascend this route. While the asphalt is good at the start, it can become quite rough, especially past Montecampione at around 1100 metres. You should also exercise caution in the tunnels along the way, as the asphalt can be poor and visibility reduced. Despite these challenges, the road generally has little traffic, allowing you to focus on your climb.

    This route offers a true test for any cyclist, combining significant length with demanding gradients. The transformation of scenery from wooded areas to open meadows adds to the experience, providing varied visual interest throughout your ride. The presence of the Marco Pantani statue near the top adds a historical touch, celebrating a legendary moment in cycling. This makes the Montecampione Climb a notable challenge in the region, rewarding your effort with expansive views.
