You might also consider taking the minor road north from the Stelvio pass
near its highest point, going over the Umbrail pass into Switzerland and the
picturesque village of Santa Maria in the Val Mustair. That area of
Switzerland is a National Park - very scenic and worth visiting.


I'd do that rather than go over the eastern ramp of the Silfserjoch.
There's a 3km stretch of unmade road but it's very firm and dead easy to
drive.
