A wonderful pass. Driving tip: autumn. Then there is less or no traffic, and the trees are colourful. As is so often the case in South Tyrol in summer, overrun by motorbikes and cars ...... read more

A wonderful pass. Driving tip: autumn. Then there is less or no traffic, and the trees are colourful. As is so often the case in South Tyrol in summer, overrun by motorbikes and cars ...

Ein wunderbarer Pass. Fahrtipp: Herbst. Dann ist weniger bis gar kein Verkehr, dann sind die Bäume bunt. Wie so oft in Südtirol im Sommer von Motorrädern und Autos überrollt …

Rode up Mendelpass from Gand. Very good tarmac and very nice scenery. Once out of the village you ride continuously between trees. The higher you get, the more views you will see. Watch out for fast moving cars though, the road can be a bit busy.

Mendelpass opgereden vanuit Gand. Erg goed asfalt en een heel mooie omgeving. Eenmaal uit het dorp rijd je continu tussen bomen. Hoe hoger je komt, hoe meer uitzichten je zult zien. Wel opletten op snel rijdende auto's, de weg kan wat druk zijn.
