The Stelvio Pass Road
The Stelvio Pass Road twists and turns in tight serpentines and more than 48 hairpin bends before reaching Stelvio Pass at a lofty height of 2,757 meters.
It connects Spondigna/Spondinig in Venosta Valley with Bormio in Lombardy and is the highest mountain pass in Italy. Its planning and construction - which was begun in 1820 under Kaiser Franz Joseph and completed in 1926 with only six years' construction - is regarded as a pioneering achievement in the area of mountain road building.
