For good reasons, the Stelvio Pass could be defined as the most northern state road in the Italian territory that proceeds horizontally through 2 rich regions full of traditions, culture, landscapes and nature, i.e. Lombardia and Trentino Alto Adige. The Lombardian side, from Piantedo to the Stelvio Pass is managed by Anas (the Italian national roads agency); the other, from Stelvio to Bolzano, by the Autonomous Province of Bolzano.
