Classic route starting and ending in Canazei, tackling two of the most loved and feared Dolomite passes by cyclists: Fedaia and Pordoi. At Passo Pordoi, first stop at the monument dedicated to Fausto Coppi, which recalls the legendary feats of the "campionissimo". At the inauguration in July 2000, his daughter Marina, and Coppi’s three teammates Ettore Milano, Franco Giacchero, and Michele Gismondi were present. Second stop in front of Gilberto Simoni’s Wilier Triestina Cento1, embedded since 2011 in a monument of rock and metal. It is the same bicycle with which the Trentino rider entered the Verona Arena at the closing of his last Giro d’Italia in 2010. Recommended periods: from late April to late June and from September to late October. In July and August, traffic is particularly heavy on the Dolomite passes (cars, motorcycles, buses). Giro d’Italia climb from Canazei to Passo Fedaia: average gradient 4.5% with maximum peaks of 11%, number of hairpin bends 5. First refreshment points at Pian Trevisan locality and at Passo Fedaia. Descent from Passo Pordoi to Canazei: average gradient 6.7% with maximum peaks of 10%, number of hairpin bends 27. Refreshment points in Val di Fassa at Passo Pordoi, Pecol, Pian de Frataces. E-bike charging and small repair kit available at the valley station of the Pordoi cable car.
