ポンテッバの峠・トップ20

The small reservoir at the Nassfeld pass is beautiful, but unfortunately overrun by camper vans and motorcyclists on weekends.

The Passo del Cason di Lanza is located in northern Friuli and connects the town of Pontebba in the east with the village of Paularo in the west. Pontebba lies on an old and still very important trade route: a railway and a highway connect Venice and Udine with Villach and Klagenfurt in neighboring Carinthia. While the railway now runs mostly through tunnels, Pontebba still has its train station, while for most other towns in the valley, the railway era is definitely over.

The descent towards Tröpolach was tackled in pouring rain, which is why the impressions may be somewhat influenced. The asphalt is very nice, with a few bends in the upper section with good asphalt and a view towards the valley. However, as you speed up towards Tröpolach, you mainly ride through wooded areas, so you don't get much of a view. Instead, you whiz down long straights with easily visible waves, interrupted by a few bends in the lower section, in downhill style. The asphalt varies between good and brittle. There is also more traffic on the north side, as the upper Nassfeld seems to be a popular destination for day trippers.

A small man-made lake right next to the border with a road and hiking trail around it. A beautiful place for taking photos, sitting and relaxing, and in winter for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing.

Passo del Cason die Lanzaはシーズン中は非常に交通量の多い地域です。マウンテンバイカーは、特にオーストリア側から来る場合は、交通に注意する必要があります。PontebbaからPaularoまでの道路は、常に大型バイクや乗用車が通行しているため、注意が必要です！

Definitely challenging climb with not very well-maintained asphalt.

A very nice view of the mountain.

Nice view of the Gartnerkofel 🤩
