Pedenolo Switchback Climb

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Beautiful switchbacks towards Pedenolo. Be careful of the cliff on the side of the trail, but otherwise, all you need is a little mountain biking or gravel riding skill and you're good to go.

Bocchetta di Pedenolo

Highlight • Mountain Pass

At almost 2,800 meters of Bocchetta di Pedenolo, you can enjoy a crazy view of the surrounding peaks. The roads that arrive here are gravel but far from impossible and the silence is remarkable.

July 19, 2024,Day 1: High alpine gravel at its best – Bormio beyond the Stelvio

For my first gravel Tour, I'm riding with Stefano and our guide Matteo, a passionate local cyclist. We head out of Bormio on the road leading to the Stelvio, but leave it shortly after Bagni Vecchi.

We join the ancient Salt and Wine gravel road, used in the Middle Ages to trade wine from Italy to central Europe and salt …

August 17, 2025,Stelvio unpaved

Challenging climb. After leaving Bormio and passing the old and new bathing establishments, the dirt road begins. The first 10 km are on compact, packed gravel and a very wide road. But the gradients are often in the double digits, with peaks of up to 20%. As the road climbs, it becomes a trail, always rideable, always steep. This section …
