If Italians hadn't built that road, it probably wouldn't exist. Same as there's no direct road here.

Vrsic

Kal-Koritnica - Cezsoca - Zaga

The so called Slowenische Grenzkammstrasse(i dont know if Slovenians have a name for this road).It goes parallel to the Soca valley road from Most na Soci over Kambresko,Lig and Vrhovlje to Neblo

Verso · August 9th, 2012, 03:15 PM

You used some local roads (except Vršič). How old are those pics?

Passo Pordoi

***ChrisZwolle*** · August 11th, 2012, 07:00 PM

Nice. Italian passes are underrated in my opinion. Most Dutch only know the Swiss passes.

In summer, everywhere in Trentino and on lake Garda (passes included) Dutch is the second most common license plate, after the Germans and before the Italians.

imo that is realy so - you hear more german and dutch speaking then italian in the garda region especialy in the northern region - torbole,malcesine,limone
the Passo Pordoi is great for driving,especialy the eastern side - 36 curves and every of them a real pleasure

-Pino- · August 11th, 2012, 07:35 PM

There may be a lot of Dutchmen visiting the area, but they won't come over to drive passes for fun. Switzerland is much more the destination of choice when it comes to driving mountain routes for the fun of it.

g.spinoza · August 11th, 2012, 08:32 PM

Maybe. I find Dutchmen quite scared about mountain roads - and they drive accordingly

Also because a great part of the Alps are in Italy, but not only because of that. In Italy there are roads linking most valleys (especially in the Dolomites), often open year-round, while in Switzerland a lot of valleys have dead-end roads, and most pass roads are closed in winter. Even main roads are rare, Wallis-Valais canton for instance has no road to Bern canton, except the Lötschberg train shuttle and the Grimsel pass, closed most of the time.

You can drive over the Aletschgletscher from Wallis to Bern

Italy is more for relaxing and just having fun while Swiss pass roads are more huge and scary
