The climb on the Italian side is better.

Attention! Closed in 2024 due to landslide. Alternatively via Nassfeld to Friuli.

To be honest, it's a little disappointing. At least the pass offers a view towards Italy. There's not much to see towards Austria. And there is a beautiful pass monument. But otherwise the Plöcken Pass can be described as "dead", presumably also because the Italian side is closed.

The Plöckenpass is very nice to drive from the south and actually quite pleasant from the slope ago. tw rel a lot of traffic, which can not go as fast on the ascent as in the driveway (there is really speed gebolzt in shallower area)

Very nice road up from Timau in Italy to the Monte Croce Carnico pass: on the austrian side the asphalt is very bad and you need to ride very carefully!

The Plöckenpass is the second climb of the SuperGiroDolomiti 2019. The pass also forms the border between Austria and Italy. Coming from Gailtal he leads in Italy to Friuli. He is then driven one more time from the south side.
