Climb from Scopello to Alpe di Mera

Highlight • Climb

Paved but very steep, the road between Scopello and Alpe di Mera is panoramic and with several hundred meters above 10%. In 2021 it hosted the arrival of the nineteenth stage of the Giro d'Italia: Simon Yates won and Egan Bernal consolidated his lead in the general classification.
