Stelvio, Ascend from Bormio

11.95

Stelvio from Bormio (South Side) – Iconic climb. Featured in 2012,2013,2014,2017 Giro d’Italia. Part of Stelvio Grand Tour.
This is the highest road pass in Italy at 2,758 metres above sea level, and also the highest finish of any Grand Tour stage. It’s the the architecture of the climb that really makes it famous and sets it apart from the rest. Bend after bend with a relentless gradient, jaw dropping waterfalls free-falling on a non-stop trajectory towards the valley below and a vast expanse of mountain mystique the higher you climb. That’s the real beauty of the mighty Stelvio, a true test of physical and mental strength all the way to the summit.
This is approximately a 2 hour climb.
