Passo Falzarego from Cortina d'Ampezzo
Beautifull long climb starting from Cortina d'Ampezzo. The bottom part is still within the forest but you'll gradually work you're way up for the spectacular dolomites views. The gradient is steady and pleasant and in the middle there is a flatter section that is ideal for a bit of recovery. At the top you turn right and continue to the slightly higher peak of Passo Valparola.
