WHERE AM I ?

[pingvin]

How about this one

Grtz, Philip!

Don't know...but want to go there France

[Torque]

Nope, way eastwards It's in the Alps though.

Grtz, Philip!

[iomrob]

like pingvin i dont know it, but want to go there, the mountains in the back remind me of Austria, near Ali's pension in the Dachstein area.

[Torque]

Mountains in the back are Italian. And with this I'm not saying that this pic is made in Italy

Grtz, Philip!

[iomrob]

so, i'll go for France, round the Briancon area, so Col du M Cenis

[Torque]

Nope, completely the other side of the Alps. Besides, Mt. Cenis is a large two lane road, this is a narrow one lane road

Seems like I've got a difficult one, didn't expect it.

Grtz, Philip!

[ChrisN]

I guess Vrsic pass in Slovenia ?

[Torque]

ChrisN is getting very close, but not there yet

Grtz, Philip!

[ChrisN]

ChrisN is getting very close, but not there yet

Grtz, Philip!

So, are we in the right country ?

[Torque]

Yep, the right country it is, bit it's not the Vrsicpas

Grtz, Philip!

[Michael J]

Mangart?

[Torque]

And we have a winner, it's up to you Michael

By the way, do try to include the Mangart in your trip if you're anywhere close enough, it's one of the most amazing roads I've ever done

[Karza]

.Mangart is on our route 2013.....

[pffog]

Damn, I didn't check in soon enough.

But agree, Mangart is a must do.

Rode right by this opportunity in 2010 when I got as far east as I've ever ridden in the alps I'd never heard of it until your post.

Just been doing some research on Google Earth and it looks like there's some spectacular views to be had from the loop around the top of Mangart.

Looks like I'll be heading back there to check it out myself!

For other dummies like me; it's a dead-end road just off the Predil pass (Slovenia/Italy)
