SellarondaBikeDay 7/9/2024. An experience you absolutely must try. The Campolongo Pass is not the most complicated of the four passes. The difference in altitude is not great and the panorama is not like the next passes. But you have to pass through here if you want to return to the starting point. The descent among the 4 passes is the one that can be tackled at higher speeds.
SellarondaBikeDay 7/9/2024. Esperienza da provare assolutamente. Per quanto riguarda il passo Campolongo non è il più complicato dei 4 passi. Il dislivello non è elevato e il panorama non è come i prossimi passi. Però da qua bisogna passarci se si vuole tornare al punto di partenza. La discesa tra le 4 dei passi è quella che si può affrontare con velocità più elevate.
A relatively small pass by Alpine standards, which leads steadily first through the village, then through meadows and forests, without any major highlights.
Ein - für alpenverhältnisse relativ kleiner Pass-, der konstant zunächst durch das Dorf, dann durch Wiesen und Wälder führt, ohne ganz große Highlights zu haben.
When you ride in the Dolomites, the likelihood is that you ride this pass a number of times, possibly from both sides. I would say it is short and sweet, good gradient, some nice hairpins and good views of the Arabba valley and the Sella. One of those passes you dash up before breakfast but it is a lovely ride. The road surface can be a bit challenging, especially towards the top.
For me, too, it is the most anonymous climb of the four on the tour. Panorama a little less beautiful than the others, little variation and a summit that is not that interesting. Paradoxically, the dive towards Corvara is much more fun, where you can develop a good speed without taking excessive risks.
Anche per me é la salita più anonima delle quattro del giro. Panorama un po' meno bello rispetto alle altre, poche variazioni e una vetta non così interessante. Paradossalmente é molto più divertente la picchiata verso Corvara, in cui si può sviluppare una bella velocità senza prendersi rischi eccessivi.
Although the pass is called Campolongo, it is a short pass. Before you know it, you are on top; the climb is not too hard either. Of all the passes of the Sella Ronda, this is the least spectacular. The road surface is fine.
Hoewel de pas Campolongo heet, is het een korte pas. Voor je het weet ben je boven; de klim is ook niet overdreven zwaar. Van alle passen van de Sella Ronda is dit de minst spectaculaire. Het wegdek is prima.
If you are based in Corvara, you will climb this pass too often as it is kind of unavoidable. But it is short and over before you know it. The other side is more interesting as it is a good climb for intervals . If you are into that while on vacation :-)
In my Sella Ronda with start in Canazei the Passo Campolongo was the second climb on the cycling program (counter clockwise Pordoï/Campolongo/Gardena/Sella).
The touristic Arabba is left behind deep under you via 3 short hairpin bends, where you also cycle through the village of Varda. Middle part of the short climb is quite steep (8-10) with again 3 hairpin turns, turning into a slightly rising wide straight road to the pass height.
Top is plateau with some hotels and very quiet compared to the Pordoï. Maybe also because the view here is not so spectacular.
Shortest and least appealing climb from the Sella Ronda foursome.
Still worth the "cycling effort"!
Bij mijn Sella Ronda met start in Canazei was de Passo Campolongo de tweede klim op het fietsprogramma (tegenwijzerszin Pordoï/Campolongo/Gardena/Sella).
Het toeristische Arabba wordt diep onder je achtergelaten via 3 kort op elkaar volgende haarspeldbochten,waarbij je eveneens het dorpje Varda doorfietst. Middelste stuk van de korte klim is redelijk steil (8-10%) met weer 3 haarspeldbochten,overgaand in licht stijgende brede rechte weg naar de pashoogte.
Top is plateau met enkele hotels en in vergelijking met de Pordoï zeer rustig. Misschien ook omdat het uitzicht hier niet zo spectaculair is.
Kortste en minst tot de verbeelding sprekende klim uit het Sella Ronda viertal.
Toch nog altijd de "fietsmoeite" waard!
