- 5 years ago
Stunning drone footage shows Italy's Stelvio Pass, described by Top Gear as "one of the world's greatest roads."
The northern mountain pass stands at an elevation of 2,757 m (9,045 ft) above sea level. It is the highest paved mountain pass in the Eastern Alps, and the second highest in the Alps.
The 75 hairpin turns pose a terrifying challenge to motorists, with even Stirling Moss going off the road during a vintage car event in the 1990s.
