Caution: The roads of this region are winding, steep, and can be extremely narrow. You might want to take a good look in a car before driving them in a motor home or pulling a trailer. There are road signs that discourage RV’s on some parts of the road, so you will want to look first. Winter road conditions can often be severe. (Check before traveling.)
