THE STELVIO PASS, ITALY
Photography by Damian Morys
The Passo dello Stelvio, located in Italy, at 2757 m (9045 feet) is the highest paved mountain pass in the Eastern Alps. It was picked by the British automotive show Top Gear as its choice for the “greatest driving road in the world”, although their search was concentrated only in Europe. This image beautifully captures the top quarter of the pass. (source)
