Looks like an awesome trip smile

That's definitely an unusual amount of snow for that time of year on Stelvio though! The top few corners are usually
In snow but that looked like most of the hill.

Unreal weather at the bottom 23c at the top -3c with ice warning on the dash snowing at the top. The next pass thick fog lights on and fog light,then rain and finally sunshine again as we came down the mountains.
Loved it all and will do it again hopefully lesser miles and maybe 10 days

It did seem like a lot of miles in a short time. I spent 14 days doing about 2300 miles and was about the right amount of relaxing for the other half and driving for me biggrin

I've reduced our trips to around 250 miles a day with a max of 2 weeks
Our last one was 4800 miles in 18 days great but a bit long
