P&O ad- Stelvio pass

Guest
Can anybody tell me the number of the road in the P&O ad shown as the Stelvio pass in italy. The maps I have show Stelvio national park but its not easy to pinpoint the actual road.
 
Stelvio / Stilfserjoch pass

It's the S38 about 60 k south of St. Anton

Were heading there in July after the Gramish meet ;)
 
And the way down again...

Hang on tight and watch out for the Dutch campervans coming the other way!

Canny indeed Andy

And did you buy one of the overpriced (but delicious) sausages from the guy about ten feet from where the photo was taken?

Here's another shot from about half way up (from the Italian side).
Interesting country, eh?

Yes we did get a sausage,but we stayed in Bormio so it was not long after breakfast so most of mine went over side for the marmots.Andy
