Dolomites
Sella Ronda Loop runs Canazei to Canazei in Dolomites, Italy. The road is at its best before the first coaches arrive, so staying within a few minutes of the start is worth more than a smarter hotel an hour away. Check the season before you book. All four passes need to be open, roughly May to October.
