This climb immediately starts with a wall as soon as you cross the bridge after the village of Au! After that, however, it flattens out quite a bit and you can give your legs a rest. Until the exit to the right, the road is still quite busy, but after that it is easy to do. Once you have survived that part, the views are breathtaking and the percentages allow you to enjoy the beautiful views of the mountain tops while riding.

Deze klim begint direct met een muur zodra je na het dorpje Au de brug overgaat!! Daarna vlakt het echter redelijk af en kun je de benen wat rust geven. Tot aan de afslag naar rechts is de weg nog vrij druk, maar daarna is het goed te doen. In het dorpje krijg je nog een zeer stijl stuk klimmen voor de kiezen, als je dat stuk eenmaal overleefd hebt zijn de uitzichten adembenemend en laten de percentages het toe om al rijdend te genieten van de prachtige vergezichten over de bergtoppen.

This climb is really a must!

As you can see in the profile, the difficulty is in the beginning. Then it gets less steep. But do not rejoice too soon: after you have passed Damüls you will have to go through Oberdamüls where you will face some very steep streets. Once you've had that it is really enjoy. The view you have on your left is magnificent. You can also see the gallery tunnel that goes to the top of Faschinajoch.

On top of the Furkajoch is a tent where you can eat and drink with a beautiful view. (Only pay cash though).

Deze klim is echt een aanrader!

Zoals op het profiel te zien is, zit de zwaarte in het begin. Daarna wordt het minder steil. Maar juich niet te vroeg: nadat je Damüls hebt gehad moet je nog door Oberdamüls waar je nog een paar erg steile straten voor de kiezen krijgt. Als je die gehad hebt wordt het echt genieten. Het uitzicht dat je aan je linkerhand hebt is schitterend. Ook kun je de galerijtunnel zien die naar de top van Faschinajoch gaat.

Bovenop de Furkajoch is een tentje waar je met een prachtig uitzicht iets kunt eten en drinken. (Wel alleen contant betalen.)
