Passo delle Erbe / Würzjoch from San Martin de Tor

A nice quiet climb in stages! From motorway 224, the first part is actually already false flat uphill. The real climb starts when leaving San Martin. You get immediately a tough part over an open Alpine meadow, where you see the road turning steeply towards a church (museum). Once there, you've had the first difficult part and the climb becomes a bit flatter. You even get a descent. Fine for that moment, but disastrous for your rhythm. Just before the village of Antermoia, where you turn into an Alpine meadow, the road starts to climb again. In the village itself this becomes more serious and at the exit of the village you get the most challenging part of the climb. It's not really steep, but it is the constant change of rhythm that you feel. From Antermoia on, the climb doesn't level off anymore, but you do get the opportunity to get into a rhythm. Nice climb, especially in terms of landscape and views. You drive through quiet mountain villages, through forests and mountain meadows, along streams and with continuous views of surrounding peaks (including Kronplatz). This climb so do not forget with all the surrounding offer of large cols.
