About Julier Pass
The Julier Pass (2284 m) has been a route into the Engadine since Roman times. From Silvaplana it is short and steady, and at the top stand the remains of a Roman column.
In rampida you ride the route exactly as it lies on the road: the gradient reaches your trainer metre by metre, the scenery is built from real elevation data and OpenStreetMap. A pacer group can pull you along, and next time you race your own ghost.
