Ho fatto la salita in bici da corsa dopo avere visto le recensioni su climbfinder bella e piacevole all’ombra del bosco ed un panorama splendido in cima che spazia a 360 gradi peccato per qualche macchina e relative difficoltà di superamento dovute alla larghezza ridotta della strada

Beautiful climb on an old military road, much of it in the shade of the forest. Long but never extreme. At the end of the climb, beautiful views of the Dolomites. Technical and demanding descent on narrow road, asphalt not always perfect.

Bellissima salita su vecchia strada militare in buona parte all'ombra del bosco. Lunga ma mai estrema. Al termine della salita paesaggi bellissimi sulle dolomiti. Discesa tecnica ed impegnativa su strada stretta, asfalto non sempre perfetto.

Long climb on the spectacular "Strada del Genio", built at the end of 1800. It ends on a stupendous plateau, one of the most beautiful places in the Dolomites, at the foot of the Marmarole. The last stretch has been cemented and can be easily tackled by road bike. But if you go up by MTB there are numerous possibilities to reach malghe and refuges and you can return to the valley along various routes, making very rewarding loops.

Lunga salita sulla spettacolare "Strada del Genio", costruita alla fine del 1800. Termina su uno stupendo altopiano, uno dei luoghi più belli delle Dolomiti, ai piedi delle Marmarole. L'ultimo tratto è stato cementato e può essere affrontato tranquillamente in bici da corsa. Ma se si sale in MTB ci sono numerose possibilità di raggiungere malghe e rifugi e si può tornare a valle per vari itinerari, compiendo anelli molto remunerativi.
