Οι 7 καλύτερες λίμνες Totesee

As you ride up the Grimsel Pass from Innertkirchen, your efforts will be rewarded by the ever-changing scenery. While the initial route passes lush green meadows and dense forests, the higher you climb, the more barren and rocky the terrain becomes. Near the pass, the mountain landscape is dominated by reservoirs used to generate electricity. Given the length and elevation gain, it's important to manage your energy wisely. Once you reach the top, you can refuel at the restaurant.

The Grimsel offers a very respectable difference in altitude, particularly from Innertkirchen, spectacular views in the upper third and a beautiful pass - definitely worth a ride. If you can, we recommend riding in the morning hours, the sunrise at the top of the pass is something very special.

Superb lake with the reflection of the mountains

The name comes from the fact that many Habsburg soldiers drowned here when trying to escape. By the way, there is a lot of hustle and bustle here in the summer. Crowds of cars and especially motorcycles (with their smelly two-stroke engines) make this place an unreal place in a barren alpine landscape.

Here the road has to be shared with the cars.

The postal bus will comfortably take you and your bike up to the Grimsel Pass at an altitude of over 2,000 meters. From here, several fantastic mountain bike trails begin, promising top-class singletrack and a fantastic mountain panorama.

The second half of the Grimsel Pass now begins. From here the cyclists also stop the time on the Grimsel, and that is because the cyclists who come here from the right from the Furka Pass also have an opportunity to include this pass in their palmarès. It consists of only 6 hairpin bends. However, these are quite long and have a gradient of 7 to 9%. The pass looks steeper than it actually is and it's a good idea to only keep an eye on the next hairpin bend and not look up the mountain.

The Totensee, also spelled Totesee, is located on the Valais canton side of the Grimsel Pass. It is located at an altitude of 2160 meters above sea level and belongs to the municipality of Obergoms.
