アイロロの峡谷・トップ16

Simply outstanding!!! If you arrive up here by bike from the north side, you have almost reached Andermatt and then this natural spectacle, no one can take that away from you ;) beautiful

Oh yes: the spray from the Reuss provides you with a welcome cooling down when cycling uphill 💦

A wild tangle of bridges: the old Devil's Bridge for pedestrians and cyclists, the bridge for cars and a bridge for the train. Interesting to look at.

From Andermatt train station, there is a short hiking trail to the Devil's Bridge and Schöllen Gorge. Simply follow the circular trail sign. You can go through the tunnel on the circular trail without any problems.

If you want to get a spooky look into the Schöllenen Gorge, you should take the Schöllenen circular trail during the summer months. It is easy to walk and takes no more than 30 minutes at a leisurely pace. One section goes through a tunnel, which unfortunately was not lit when we were there, despite the appropriate installation.

The rugged Schöllenen Gorge, through which the Reuss flows deep below, has always been a difficult obstacle to overcome on the Gotthard Pass route. It was probably the Walsers who tried to open up the mule track to the south by building daring bridges around 1200. The attempt to build a bridge over the Reuss failed several times over the centuries - until, according to legend, a pact was made with the devil.

Very impressive section of the Leventina. A small detour that is also highly recommended by bike instead of using the main road.

Spectacular and cycling in pass on the original bridge.
