Bormio is a fairly well-known winter sports resort. What makes Bormio extremely likeable, however, is the fact that this small town has completely retained its idyllic atmosphere. No sign of …

June 18, 2023,Lo Stelvio potevo perdermelo????? 2023-06-18 💪🏆
I took advantage of the day when the road to the Stelvio was closed to motor vehicles (a commendable and well-organized initiative). The context is fabulous, the views of the surrounding mountains and the road snake are worth the effort and expense of getting to Bormio from Chiavari. For the rest, what can I say? I was expecting a much …

The Stelvio Pass (in Italian: passo dello Stelvio, in German: Stilfser Joch) is the highest road pass in the Italian Alps at 2,760 meters above sea level. Linking Bormio in Lombardy to Prato allo Stelvio in Trentino-Alto Adige, it is also the second highest road pass in the Alps after the Col de l'Iseran (2,764 m). The pass, located in …

Second day of the Enjoy Cancano Stelvio Gavia September 2023. Lots of participation and lots of beauty along this iconic climb. The last time I did this climb I had my bags in cycle touring mode. Now, without bags, it's much better. Unfortunately Umbrail is closed, otherwise there would have been a quick visit.

From Bormio to the Stelvio pass and back.
What is par excellence called the Coppi peak. In theory it changes from year to year depending on the stage of the Tour of Italy that reaches the highest altitude, but in the end when we talk about Cima Coppi we are referring to the Stelvio pass. The degree of difficulty depends …

The climb to the Passo dello always remains one of the most beautiful 🚴😁

We did most of this side of the Stelvio a few days ago but turned off 3km from the summit to drop down the Umbrail Pass. So today was the day to complete the full climb from the Bormio side.
We'd been told that the last 3km were a little vicious & they didn't disappoint! Still definitely easier than the …
June 18, 2023,Bormio/Stelvio
Exciting day on the Stelvio, apart from a few inconveniences: pinion problem (it was stuck, it didn't go up in gears), motorcyclists (an unimaginable flood from Switzerland), high prices in the bars of the pass (a simple sandwich costs 12 euros) and car traffic at return (queue from Colico to Capriano). The splendid weather and the excellent organization from Bormio …

A cold and rainy ascent that turned into frozen rain. After the Gavia, my legs gave up after 10km.

The most challenging descent ever, while battling the cold. What an experience
