Whether it is your first time up the Stelvio, or if you have some unfinished business to settle, in this newsletter we’ve brought together some tips that should help you enjoy this helter-skelter of a ride as part of Haute Route Dolomites.
A quick note on the new health pass
As you may have heard, the Italian government has recently implemented a new health pass initiative to help the country safely ease its Coronavirus restrictions. This health pass will be required to participate in many parts of the Haute Route experience, including event briefings, massages and shuttles, plus access to restaurants and other institutions throughout the week.
But never fear. As always, we’ve got you covered. We’ve implemented some new services to make sure everyone can enjoy the full Haute Route experience without compromise. We will be in touch in the next weeks with further information for anyone that needs it.
Ride safe and see you in the mountains,
The Haute Route team
