Scenic pass that is opened all year round (closes at 6pm in winter). There is hardly any traffic which makes cycling very nice and plenty of opportunities to take pictures. We crossed the pass in early May when there was still plenty of snow up there. The change in scenery where it was all green at Disentis and slowly turning white as we climbed higher... and very quickly turned to green as we rolled down on the south side to Biasca was breathtaking.

The Lucomagno is one of the most famous Alpine passes in Switzerland. It is located between the cantons of Ticino and Grisons, at an altitude of 1,926 meters. The name seems to derive from the Latin "locus magnus", meaning "large, open place". It is often tackled in the professional race of the Tour of Switzerland.

At the Oberalp Pass at 2,044 meters, not only is the obligatory "passport photo" waiting at the Oberalp Pass sign, but also the only lighthouse in the Alps. It comes from Rotterdam, where the original lighthouse can be found in the Maritime Museum, which once stood in Hoek van Holland, at the mouth of the Rhine into the North Sea - thus completing the circle from the source to the mouth.

Nice pass with little traffic. From the top of the Swiss side you come through a tunnel to the top of the pass, light is advisable here. Can be combined well with the Oberalp Pass (which we drove first) the descent down to Biasca is quite long.

The quality of the road on the north side in Grisons is much better than on the south side in Ticino. Going downhill on a stiff road bike is not as enjoyable on the south side.

The Lukmanier tunnel is about 2 km long, daylit with windows throughout. There is very poor ventilation inside, so traffic exhaust fumes accumulate and give a very distinct unhealthy smell. A respirator mask is advised!

The sign indicates the altitude of 1920 m at the Lukmanier Hospice, at the southern exit from the 2-km-long tunnel running north of the pass, along the east shore of Lake Sontga Maria. However, the road reaches the highest elevation of 1973 m somewhere inside the tunnel.

When you go over the Pazolastock it is not too far to the source.

At the top of the pass, there's an inn if you're short on food, as well as an information booth about the source of the Rhine, marked here with a model of the lighthouse that stood at the mouth of the Rhine into the North Sea until a few years ago. Furthermore, the border between Uri and Graubünden runs over the top of the pass. From Andermatt, there are 600 meters of elevation gain and nine hairpin bends to overcome, and from Disentis, a good 900 meters of elevation gain and nine hairpin bends.

Lago Ritóm is a reservoir in the Pioratal, a side valley of the Leventina in the Swiss municipality of Quinto in Ticino. To the north is the little Lago Tom. The lake is of glacial origin and was expanded from 1917 to 1920 to become a reservoir for the SBB's Ritom power plant.

The highlight is twice in here but too beautiful not to be rated as a highlight. Sometimes it is difficult to find the right paths on the lake. From the Piora mountain station of the Ritombahn you can walk to Lake Tom in around one and a half hours. A great, around three-hour circular hike brings hikers from Piora via Ritomsee and Cadagnosee to Tomsee and back (3-lake hike Piora).

The Lago di Tom is a mountain lake in the Val Piora. It lies at 2020 meters above sea level. The Tomsee is around 300m long and 250m wide and is located a little above the somewhat larger reservoir Lago Ritom. If you look at the white sandy beach and the clear blue water of the lake, you almost think you're in the Caribbean. There is also swimming in the mountain lake, but not at temperatures like today on June 30th. around 10 degrees.
