Route to climb to the picturesque Santa Lucia starts at the exit of Caprile (direction Alleghe).
Turn left and climb via slightly winding roads including 3 unlit (!!) tunnels along the Fiorentina mountain river which you cross once. After 4.5 km the road turns left uphill through 6 hairpin bends until the village of Selva with on that hot day cooling village fountain. Just behind the church turn left (re = Passo Staulanza) to descend and after a sharp turn over the Codalunga river (exit Passo Giau) the last kilometers to climb through the eastern side to reach your picturesque destination.
It is highly recommended to continue for another kilometer and a few altimeters to the fantastic panoramic point Belvedere (1471m) with views of your starting point, Mont Civetta and the Marmolada. You can then continue cycling and via the last part of Falzarego descent back to Caprile for the perfect warming-up lap of 16 km.
Route om naar het schilderachtige Santa Lucia te klimmen start bij uit fietsen van Caprile (richting Alleghe).
Links afdraaien en opklimmen via licht kronkelende wegen inclusief 3 onverlichte (!!) tunnels langs de Fiorentina bergrivier dewelke je 1x over fietst. Na 4,5 km draait de weg links omhoog via 6 haarspeldbochten tot het dorpje Selva met op die hete dag verkoelende dorpsfontein. Vlak achter het kerkje links afdraaien (re=Passo Staulanza) om even te dalen en na een scherpe bocht over de Codalunga rivier (afslag Passo Giau) de laatste kilometers te klimmen om via de oostelijke zijde je pittoresk eindpunt te bereiken.
Aanrader is zeker om nog kilometer en enkele hoogtemeters door te fietsen tot het fantastische panoramapunt Belvedere (1471m) met uitzicht op je vertrekplaats, Mont Civetta en de Marmolada. Je kan dan doorfietsen en via laatste deel van Falzarego afdaling terug tot Caprile voor het perfect opwarmingsrondje van 16 km.
