June 8, 2024,Ein Fjord mitten in der Schweiz 🇨🇭 - der Gigerwaldstausee

via Tamina Gorge, St. Martin (Calfeisental) and Kunkels Pass. The drive along the Gigerwald reservoir was spectacular - right next to the rock and through several tunnels. So narrow that the road can only be driven on one side at certain times.

Friday's smaller route with an uphill stretch. First steeply to Pfäffers, then an almost flat valley and finally uphill over the crumbling asphalt to the Kunkelspass (1358). Great route, nice views, a lot of work on the climbs ❤️🚵🏼 ♀️❤️
