Gailberg Pass (Gailbergsattel)

The Gailbergsattel is the first pass at the SuperGiroDolomiti in Lienz. He is not very challenging and well suited to remind the legs of the altitude that will come. Dangers he is coming from Oberdrauburg. After Oberdrauburg follows a small sweeping symphony; after the last there are still about 2 km to the saddle. The driveway is about 6.8 km long and brings about 350 hm. After that, it is about 6.5 km down to Kötschach-Mauthen and you are hopefully well tuned to the Plöckenpass.

The ascent from the north side is especially recommended!

Connecting saddle between Oberdrauburg and Kötschach-Mauthen. Coming from the north, a beautiful climb where you can really let off steam, with various bends and longer straight sections; coming from the south, it's rather unspectacular. The type of mountain also leads to increased traffic. So it's better not to go at rush hour or during travel times, but rather early or late.
