롱가론‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 산길

One of the toughest passes in the Dolomites. The numbers on this side are devastating: 12.1 km at an average gradient of 8.2% to overcome an elevation gain of 885 meters. The intermediate section of the pass has a 5 km stretch at an average gradient of 10%. Data provided by @cyclingcols.

It starts harmlessly and then turns out to be not so harmless

The Forcella Moschesin marks the border of the Dolomiti Bellunesi National Park and offers a magnificent view of the Dolomites and the valleys below. The trails around the fork are pretty easy to run. Just up the fork are the remains of an old fort, part of a series of garrisons built in the early 20th century to protect against foreign invasion. It was part of the so-called Yellow Line which crossed the Val di Zoldo. Completed in 1913, the Battle of Caporetto led to the withdrawal to the Piave line, rendering it useless.

The Duran pass, located at an altitude of 1,605 meters, is located entirely in the province of Belluno, in Veneto. It connects the Agordina valley with the Zoldo valley. The Alta Via Number One of the Dolomites passes near the pass.

The Passo (or Forcella) Cibiana is a difficult pass in the Belluno Alps. It measures about ten kilometers and has an average gradient of about 7% on both sides: that of Forno di Zoldo and that of Venas di Cadore.

A very beautiful step, even if tiring. But don't worry that once you get to the top the effort is fully rewarded by the wonderful place that will surround you.

On a beautiful bike !!!

Very demanding climb with gradients almost always in the double digits, the asphalt is in perfect condition and few cars pass through.
