Second stage of the PVLS (Cycling Towards History). Today we go to Pasubio, a theater of war between the Italian and Austrian armies during the First World War.
Ascent from the panoramic road of heroes, which gives its best after crossing General D'Havet's tunnel. Rifugio Papa, and after an attempt to reach the Palon peak (aborted after too much portage) …

Beautiful autumn.
The light now warms without hurting and the wind caresses and sounds, while all around, at least at high altitude, the sweetness touches purple (foliage and pastures no longer parched).
I thank D. For all the patience and delicacy in "gazing at the landscape" as I walked down.
In the meantime, I dream of tents, camping stoves and …

If you are in the north of Lake Garda, you should definitely take the almost 50 km journey towards Pasubio... it's worth it! Strada degli Eroi / Scarubbi are old military streets that also make you think. TOP views round off the tour. 🙋🏼‍♂️

Impressive tour in a place steeped in history. Bloody World War I scene with many senseless victims. Thanks to Schoschone..., I followed his tour from last year.

Spelled tour by e-bike, easy and not tiring. Mostly gravel road but with good, not bumpy surfaces. I recommend the tour in this sense as they advised us to fully enjoy the views. Every curve is photo-worthy!!!! One of the most beautiful rides done to date...
