Would appreciate if anyone could recommend a good central location to stay in the dolomites for our euro motorbike trip next year and the best roads to ride in that area.
We've done the alps 3 times now so are looking to try the roads around the dolomites. Mostly Sports bikes and 1 GS going. Well probably be going September 2021 and will be getting the obb nightjet to innsbruck from dusseldorf.
Thanks in advance.

Bolzano is pretty central, and the roads east and west from there you can't go wrong with. Stelvio everyone does, and although it's far from the best to drive/ride, it's spectacular to look at. Anything starting with the word Passo (too numerous to mention) is going to be good in that area! The Grossglockner in Austria (not far from Cortina, another place worth considering to stay) is worth a shout if you can make it.
Thanks. We've done the stelvio numerous times and aren't that fussed tbh. We were based in landeck in Austria last time so have done most of the Swiss / Austrian passes. Bolzano is maybe a little further north west than I'd have preferred as we maybe want to dip into South Eastern regions of the dolomites and maybe even Slovenia. The grossglockner we will probably want to tick off the list, but isn't it an expensive toll?
