Destination
Turn-by-turn directions
Pedaling from Predazzo, the first kilometre is slightly uphill. The actual climb comes after, with the road climbing uphill for a more challenging 5-kilometre stretch. This first stretch leads onto a plateau, where the asphalt ribbon flows within an Alpine landscape of rare beauty. This is the site of the Paneveggio-Pale di San Martino nature park, the forest of violins, where Stradivari selected the red spruce wood for his instruments.
Fort Buso with the adjacent Lake appears in its linear construction, a testimony of the Great War.
The ride continues across the bridge over the Travignolo torrent and for one and a half kilometres the road gets harder. There are still 4 kilometres and a half left to the pass, divided by a short ramp that is almost imperceptible. Upon arrival, Passo Rolle appears cradled by pastures and dairy huts. At the top stands a monument dedicated to Gino Bartali who wrote some epic pages of his cycling career on these roads.
