An iconic pass for cycling, it can be reached from three different sides: from Monno and Mazzo di Valtellina (the two climbs often included in the Giro d'Italia) or even from Aprica via Trivigno (the easiest of the three, but suggestive and overview)

The Mortirolo is one of the most loved passes by Italian cyclists. Located in Lombardy, it connects the towns of Mazzo and Monno, thus joining Valtellina to Val Camonica. The slopes, especially on the Mazzo side, are very demanding: in 1994 Marco Pantani accomplished one of his most memorable feats on these ramps.

Road cycling
The Mortirolo is one of the most loved and feared passes by those who cycle in northern Italy. Located in Lombardy, it connects the towns of Mazzo, Tovo Sant'Agata, Edolo and Monno, thus uniting Valtellina with Val Camonica. The slopes, especially on the Mazzo and Tovo slopes, are very challenging. On these ramps Marco Pantani, in 1994, accomplished one of his most memorable feats: a statue is dedicated to him towards the middle of the Mazzo slope.
