マレッベ-エネベルク-マレッベの峠・トップ20

The pass is beautifully nestled between the rolling meadows of Lüsen to the north and the Pütia meadows with the steep walls of the eponymous mountain (Sas de Pütia / Peitlerkofel) to the south. From here, you have access to one of South Tyrol's most precious natural landscapes:

The roads to the Passo delle Erbe are a joy to ride from both Villnöß and Lüsen. They are generally quiet (especially from Lüsen) and generally have a good surface for a fast descent. From the Passo delle Erbe, you have beautiful views of the Peiterkofel and the Italian Dolomites. There are also plenty of opportunities to refill your water bottles and provisions up here. If you're planning a loop, I recommend not choosing the descent via Lüsen, as the asphalt is poorer there and, even in dry weather, is often wet with small streams. The route also often crosses wooden bridges, which overall diminishes the enjoyment of a fast road bike descent. However, this isn't a problem on the ascent.

A lot of parking spaces, but it's best to be there early. All paid parking spaces fill up quickly.

Arrival in the rain, departure in the sun

With morning sun or sunset the best views!!

Brutal, unforgiving, relentless, bucket list climb

Passo Giau is a wonderful starting point for a pleasant walk. It is one of the most famous mountain passes in the Dolomites. It has ample parking, the opportunity to enjoy something to eat and a beautiful view of the mountains. A visit to the Dolomites is not complete without going through Passo Giau.
