Before you set off.
Who it suits
Riders with a few routes behind them: about 6 hours of riding, but with the most hairpins in the series, around 250. Works two-up too.
When to go
May and June, then from mid-September to early October. Almost every pass is above 2,000 metres: check they are open early and late in the season.
Start and finish
Ortisei. The route: Ortisei → Sella Pass → Pordoi Pass → Campolongo Pass → Valparola Pass → Giau Pass → Fedaia Pass → Gardena Pass → Passo delle Erbe → Ortisei.
Good to know
Between Valparola and Giau you necessarily cross the Falzarego Pass, and after Passo delle Erbe you also go over Passo Eores: that is why there are ten passes.
