Arrival of the ninth stage of the Giro d'Italia 2022. Its name is of German origin and means "house of stones".
The name was coined by the Austrian military referring to a stone fort located on top of the mountain built for defensive purposes.
The debut of the Blockhaus at the Giro d'Italia took place on 31 May 1967, on that occasion the stage was won by a very young Eddy Merckx

It doesn't matter from what side you're climbing the Blockhouse, when you will reach Mirastelle Village (Roccamorice) everything changes and you will find yourself in a breathtaking high mountain atmosphere.
