With enough power in your legs, you can ride up to the glacier gate at 2,100 meters and get ready for the upcoming descent in the wild surroundings. Of course, you can also park your bike at the turning point further down, where the gravel path ends, and walk up the last few meters - it's worth it!

The Gornera, which springs from the Gorner glacier further up, flows through the narrow opening in the rock called the glacier gate.

Impressive natural spectacle at the Gornera glacier gate. We parked the bike and walked the last few meters.
