Ring road/through road between Cortina and Drei Zinnen. Crowds were not too bad, road surface fine. As everywhere in the Dolomites, breathtaking views
Rondweg / doorgaande weg tussen Cortina en Drei Zinnen. Drukte viel mee, wegdek prima. Zoals overal in de Dolomieten adembenemende uitzichten
Nice gravel path, quite trafficked. Some good spots along the course
One of the few climbs (if you can call it that) in the Dolomites where it never gets really difficult. There are also many flat and slightly descending parts where you can speed up, so the length shouldn't scare you off. Used as a run-up to the Tre Crime de Lavarado, but otherwise I wouldn't bother taking this road.
Een van de weinige klimmen (als je het zo kunt noemen) in de Dolomieten waar het nooit echt moeilijk wordt. Er zijn ook veel vlakke en licht dalende stukken waar je tempo kunt maken, dus de lengte hoeft je ook niet af te schrikken. Gebruikt als aanloop naar de Tre Crime de Lavarado, maar anders zou ik geen moeite doen om deze weg te nemen.
From Cortina, amidst heavy traffic, I took the R51 in the direction of Dobbiaco to the Passo Cimabanche.
Mainly slightly rising road with gentle turns that initially follows the valley of the Torrente Boite river, to in the middle part of the tributary valley of the Felizon to climb through some hairpin turns. Last part is almost flat and straight ahead along medieval Ospidale church and two small lakes, to end on the plateau of the desolate summit.
For MTB and gravel cyclists there is a much nicer and completely traffic free paved path built including tunnels and bridges on the old railway Cortina-Dobbiaco.
Vanuit Cortina tussen druk en zwaar verkeer via de R51 richting Dobbiaco de Passo Cimabanche op gefietst.
Voornamelijk licht stijgende weg met flauwe bochten die aanvankelijk de vallei van de Torrente Boite rivier volgt,om in het middendeel het zijdal van de Felizon zijrivier even op te klimmen via enkele haarspeldbochten. Laatste deel zo goed als vlak en rechtdoor langs middeleeuws Ospidale kerkje en twee kleine meertjes, om te eindigen op het plateau van de troosteloze top.
Voor MTB en gravelfietsers is er een veel mooier en volledig verkeersvrij verhard pad aangelegd inclusief tunnels en bruggetjes op de oude spoorwegroute Cortina-Dobbiaco.
