Robert had the idea. In real life, the thirty-something is a banker and footballer, in virtual life he is a Dolomite touring professor. On the Internet, there is no question about the Dolomites that he leaves unanswered. Trails, huts, peaks, war history - Robert knows it all and has been there with his grandfather since he was a child. Now he has unearthed this route along the still unknown front line from the First World War. From Toblach in the Puster Valley along the southernmost Dolomites to Bassano del Grappa. He reckons it will take him seven days. The route is in his head and can be called up at any time.
But as a passenger, you are soon limited to simply following the worn tyres of your old hardtail. The staccato of completely unfamiliar path and place names only serves to throw you off your stride. But I have already heard of Monte Spina. On its meadow ridge, a trail stretches southwards like a crest.
The article about the crossing of the Dolomites including the road book is available below as a PDF download to supplement the article.

1. very precise and well-maintained GPS data
2. all waypoints of a tour
3. road book with arrow symbols and all tour data
4. very precise elevation profile with information on the terrain All this is conveniently stored in a single file.
You can also order the corresponding digital maps (1.8 cents per square kilometre). You will receive these directly in the RichTrack file (double-click on the file to open the map and RichTrack simultaneously in the RichTrack software).
