세시오마조레‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪19‬개의 산길

From the Sant'Antonio Pass, the path going up is narrow and hidden by tall grass. Proceed with caution, following the signs; nothing is impossible, everything is doable, but be careful. There should also be a secured section that cuts across this section, but I haven't figured out where to get there. I did it on the way down.

This section, which covers the eastern and western slopes of the Cereda Pass along the main road (SS347), is truly spectacular for its views. The climb to the Cereda Pass on the western slope is undoubtedly the toughest, with 7.9 km at an 8.2% gradient and several kilometers above 10%. Its final section, filled with twisters and alpine padrerias, is wonderful. The eastern slope from San Gosaldo has some very steep slopes but is much easier overall. However, if you consider the connection to the Forcella d'Aurine Pass, the climb becomes even more impressive.

It's a very steady climb and little known among cyclists approaching the Dolomites for the first time. However, it's a completely Dolomite climb, with typical landscapes and the advantage of being less difficult compared to other climbs. The eastern slope is the toughest, starting from the Val Agordina. It's 12.7 km with an average gradient of 5.4%, largely due to a 1 km break 3 km from the summit. If it weren't for this break, the gradient would be constant between 6 and 7%. This climb is closely linked to other climbs nearby: the Cereda Pass and the Forcella Franche Pass. The small valleys between these three climbs are perfect for finding quiet roads where you can discover idyllic places and routes to enjoy in the Bellunesi Dolomites.

the challenging climb to Passo Cereda

Steep, narrow and exposed trail. I absolutely wouldn't do it again!

Drove from Feltre/Belluno in July 2017 as part of my first big tour (Krumbach-Venice via the Via Claudia Augusta). It was the 6th day of my tour, I already had 90 kilometers on the clock at the start of the pass and the destination for the day was Pieve di Soligo on the Treviso side. As an absolute "multi-day tour newbie" and "pass newbie", the Passo di Praderadego simply ruined me completely. Despite the many tours now underway, struggling to get there with luggage in the blazing July sun is still one of the worst experiences. Anyone who has made it can look forward to a quiet, sleepy pass summit and then enjoy the rapid descent with a beautiful view. A milestone on the Via Claudia Augusta can also be found above. When leaving, please note that the road is not always in the best condition!
