The Stelvio at 2,757m is the second-highest paved pass in Europe and the one every car enthusiast has on their list. The east side from Prad has 48 numbered hairpins — each one tighter than it looks. The west side from Bormio is faster, wider, and arguably the better drive. Surface varies: the Italian side is patched in places, the South Tyrolean side is better maintained. Width is adequate for sports cars but overtaking on the hairpins is difficult in traffic. Go before 8am or after 5pm. The view from hairpin 48 is the shot you've seen a thousand times. It's better in person.
