More Alps/Europe advice.

Yodagoat · Jan 20, 2007

Can anyone give me some advice for a rough route to take in the best passes in the Alps and surrounding area. I'm going to be away for about 2 weeks and I have to start at Morzine. So far I have Morzine -Stelvio - Grossglockner - Fucking (Austria). Thats only 650 or so miles and I'm sure I'm missing loads of good stuff out. Any advice would be appreciated.

Cheers again

Mike

If you have Garmin & Map source city navigator europe, I can send you all my routes which do a lot of the great passes in the Alps & Dolomites.

Try these two links.

The ADAC maps have excellent motorcycle routes shown on them. I have ridden a lot of these routes and can vouch that they are good biking roads being generally quiet A or B class roads. I tend to print the ADAC maps off the computer in A4 map to page size. Text is small but sufficiently large to enable you to relate the guide to the GPS or a larger scale map.

Alpine roads list most of the major Alpine passes, provides a description of the route and and whether they are open/closed due to weather.

I have found these two site indispensible when planning my own tours.
