Where to Bike the Classic Bike Climbs of Italy

BIKE TOURING THE MORTIROLO FROM THE TOWN OF GROSIO 

mortirola grisola 1

The bike climb up this side of the Mortirolo is generally ridden as the descent by cyclists returning to Bormio or other locations in the valley.  The route is one of the few open to general traffic so you must be very attentive on the narrow turns.
