Arcalis
The road to the Arcalis ski station is wide and well-paved. The real beauty starts after the avalanche tunnels, where a stunning set of hairpin bends kicks in. The view from the top is incredible. Just above the bends, there’s a large ring-shaped monument you can spot from below.
This climb has featured multiple times in both the Tour de France and the Vuelta a España.
