CLIMBING PASSO STELVIO

Passo Stelvio is the most iconic climb of the cycling world. There are three pathways that lead to the top of the mountain. The Italian roads of Bormio and Prato and the Swiss side of Umbrail Pass. In today's video we are going to discover the history, landscape and the secrets of the highest paved road in Italy.

I wish sooo so much that when I will be on top of Stelvio on July 22, the weather will be just as nice as it was for you here.

Great video, thanks. I climbed the Stelvio in mid June 2017. Started out in light rain, finished in sleet. My hands froze so I was unable to change gear (I didn't stop). Took me ages, but no annoying motorbikes on the climb, as I stayed overnight at Prato and started the ride at 7am. Also did the Zoncolan, sella Ronda, Grossglockner, and Monte Grappa on that trip - all superb. Happy days! These videos help me remember it.

Great video! I climbed the Stelvio from Prato, July 4, 2013.
Absolutely would love to do it again.😄

Just a correction...the Stelvio was technically built by the Austrian, but practically they forced italians to build it...and it was done in 100 days if I'm not wrong!

Cada mes lo subo en el Bkool, ahí están las 3 vertientes. Hermosas y durísimas

Marc! Pedazo contenido. Sigue mostrándonos estos colosos del ciclismo. Nosotros visitamos esa zona en unas semanas. Nos podrías aconsejar? Zona Bolzano?

I'm cycling the Stelvio in August of this year. What advice would anyone give me training/preparation wise? Thank you.

[@offthemarc5741]

Stelvio is a very long climb where the key is to be able to keep a steady pace for many minutes. That means endurance. I would train the endurance specially in uphill. If you can, try to do as many climbs as possible at a steady pace. Enjoy the Stelvio!

Marco Polo brought gelato from China? Wow, I didn't know that (pasta, I did hear of that).

[@offthemarc5741]
