Description

The Gelato Pass is located at an altitude of 2874 meters between the Fosse Valley and the Passeier Valley. It is reached by an old military trail, which is completely rideable and well maintained. Just below the pass stands the Petrarca hut, destroyed a few years ago by an avalanche and now rebuilt. Before starting the most beautiful stretch, at an altitude of 2050, there is the Gelato farmstead, with excellent refreshment and ebike recharge, an ideal stop before tackling the last climb.


The descent is very long and very fun, always on military trail, with some quite challenging sections.

The view is really beautiful, exciting and wild, climbing among other rocky peaks in white, red and black, which contrast with the green meadows and the blue sky.

The full tour must be done clockwise and is quite challenging. At the beginning of the Schnalstal valley there are two long tunnels that are rather troublesome; possibly you can pass on the old road to the left, although this is forbidden.

Best done on stable, warm days, as at the Ice Pass the weather can change very quickly.
