This short climb starts when you turn right just outside Cortina, in the hamlet Gilardon, the main Dolomites road SS48 towards Passo Falzarego. (Signposted chairlift Piè Tofana).
From the exit it is irregularly steep uphill through several hairpin bends through the dense pine forests with hardly any population. The last kilometer is murderous with double figures. Dead end road stops at restaurant Piè Tofane and the valley station of the same name chair lift towards hiking & skiing area of the Tofana massif.
There was little to no traffic in the summer.
Ideal short powerful climb to the "Tre Cime " feeling in the legs already experienced!!!
Deze korte klim start wanneer je even buiten Cortina, in het gehucht Gilardon, de grote Dolomietenweg SS48 richting Passo Falzarego, rechts afdraait. (wegwijzer zetellift Piè Tofana).
Vanaf de afslag is het onregelmatig steil bergop via enkele haarspeldbochten door de dichte naaldbossen met amper bewoning. De laatste kilometer is moordend met dubbele cijfers. Doodlopende weg stopt aan restaurant Piè Tofane en het dalstation van de gelijknamige zetellift richting wandel&skigebied van het Tofanamassief.
Er was in de zomer weinig tot geen verkeer.
Ideale korte krachtige klim om het "Tre Cime" gevoel in de benen al eens te ervaren!!!
