    The road is not necessarily extremely steep, but it still takes a long time up the mountain and requires stamina. The two reservoirs provide variety and the imposing mountain landscape makes up for the effort anyway ...

      You have to do Grimsel! Better during the week, the pass is also popular with motorcyclists.

        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.
