Passo Tre Croci
SR48Cortina d’Ampezzo to Misurina
Forested Dolomites link from Cortina to Misurina.
The SR48 climbs roughly 8 km from Cortina d’Ampezzo to a 1805 m wooded saddle beneath the Cristallo and Sorapis massifs, then drops toward Misurina. The bends are mostly wide and the asphalt smooth, with steep ramps near the top. Mind the dense tourist and hiking traffic at the pass trailheads.
