This climb was part of the Giro d'Italia in 2013. the name Altopiano is just the last steep bit and popularly known as the Selle Nevea. A popular ski area for Italians and Austrians who want something different.
The climb is not very tough, although the overview does not indicate that as soon as you cross the little river you immediately have 10% rise.
Italian passes are built fairly randomly, not with the finesse of the French ones by Napoleon. It goes up and down and you drive through and gorge as it were towards the abandoned ski village.

No special end point for a photo but a reasonably gentle climb where you can test your legs well, start in Tarvisio and you go downhill to Chuisaforte, after the descent you come to the blue-green lake of Predil and you can continue downhill to Tarvisio or climb a bit more to Slovenia.
There are several climbs to the left and right of the SS13 ( Pontebana) so you can connect different loops to get to extreme altimeters without breaking your legs ( avoid the Zoncolan, though).

Deze klim was onderdeel van de Giro d'Italia in 2013. de naam Altopiano is alleen het laatste steile stukje en in de volksmond is dit de Selle Nevea. Een geliefd skigebied voor de Italianen en Oostenrijkers die eens wat anders willen.
De klim is niet erg zwaar, al geeft het overzicht niet aan dat je zodra je over het riviertje gaat je meteen 10% stijging hebt.
Italiaanse passen zijn redelijk willekeurig aangelegd, niet met de finesse van de Franse door Napoleon. Het gaat op en af en je rijdt als het ware door en kloof richting het verlaten skidorp.

Geen speciaal eindpunt voor een foto maar wel een redelijk rustige klim waar je goed je benen kunt testen, start in Tarvisio en je gaat bergaf naar Chuisaforte, na de afdaling kom je bij het blauwgroene meer van Predil en kun je bergaf door naar Tarvisio of nog even klimmen naar Slovenie.
Er liggen diverse beklimmingen links en rechts van de SS13 ( Pontebana) zodat je verschillende lussen kunt verbinden om tot extreme hoogtemeters te komen zonder je benen te breken ( wel de Zoncolan even mijden).
