Passo Rolle e Passo Valles

We start from Alleghe and ride the easy 10 km that lead us to Cencenighe Agordino. From here we go up the Biois valley. The road has discontinuous slopes: alternating stretches of false flat to steep stretches. The landscape opens up vast and sunny pastures. A new challenging tear near Caviola prelude to a new slight slope that leads to Falcade. After the basin on which relaxes the town face a long hairpin, passing the imposing church and is reached by steep slopes the fraction of Falcade Alto. Abandoned after a narrow passage the last houses continues with moderate slope among woods and steep meadows until the Sega Bridge: two wide hairpins and we reach the junction to the San Pellegrino pass. From this point very few concessions that are reserved to us: the way it greatly narrows and enters the dense forest, with slopes ranging consistently around 10%. After the catwalk of ski track that falls in Falcade the valley opens onto a wonderful wild and lonely mountain panorama. After a curve to the right it will come out on the Passo Valles. Descending towards Paneveggio. We turn left to face Passo Rolle. It rises gently up to the bridge over the Rio Travignolo, then the road becomes steeper and climbs through the beautiful forest of Paneveggio. The forest becomes progressively sparser and the view opens on the surrounding mountains. We reach the pass, opened the saddle between Monte Cavallazza and Monte Castellazzo and dominated by the tooth of the Pala Cimon. The descent takes us to San Martino di Castrozza where the race ends.
