About the road
The Stelvio's famous side: from Prato allo Stelvio in the Vinschgau up the SS38, through Gomagoi and Trafoi under the Ortler, then the 48 numbered hairpins that stack up the mountainside to the pass.
It is the highest point the Giro d'Italia has ridden to. On the trainer it is simply long: a climb to ride in pieces, or in one big day.
Also known as Passo dello Stelvio, Stilfser Joch, Stelvio from Prato, the SS38.
How to ride it on your trainer
- Open longvoie in Chrome or Edge on a laptop or desktop. It is free: an email and a code to sign in, no password, no card.
- Connect your trainer: any smart trainer that speaks FTMS (Wahoo, Tacx, Elite…), or a power meter, and a heart-rate strap if you have one. No trainer yet? Ride on the keys.
- Pick Stelvio. longvoie sets your trainer's resistance as the road climbs and eases it as it falls, and you ride it in 3D, on the real street.
- Stop whenever you like. Your next ride starts from the metre you stopped at.
| Your usual ride | Stelvio takes |
|---|---|
| 30 minutes | about 6 rides |
| 45 minutes | about 4 rides |
| 60 minutes | about 3 rides |
