Starting from Corvara, there are four climbs: Passo Gardena, Passo Sella, Passo Pordoi, and Passo Campolongo.
Today, I took it easy just enjoying the views and taking some photos:
At the top of Passo Pordoi is the Coppi monument:

Ciao Will, i came by your site whilst looking for somewhere in Europe to set up a cycle-tour business with my wife (I retire in less than 3 years (aged 50)).
I haven’t taken time to have a good look through the content but I just wanted to say that I really like what I’ve seen so far. You’ve gotta be proud of what you’ve done so far, good on you.
Many thanks,
Nige.
Great pictures Will. A really scenic loop that I will always remember.
