Beautiful, but tough climb in a wonderful environment. The last part is forbidden for cars so that the cyclist can fully enjoy everything around him. The dead end at the dam with the beautiful green-blue lake is a worthy ending!

Prachtige, maar pittige klim in een wondermooie omgeving. Het laatste stuk is verboden voor autoverkeer waardoor je als fietser ten volle kan genieten van alles om je heen. Het doodlopend eindpunt aan de stuwdam met het wondermooie groenblauwe meer is een waardige afsluiter!

In August 2019 I cycled this beautiful and challenging climbing route in the middle of nature with a beautiful finish on the dam.
After the exit of the busy national road (Andermatt-Wassen)you descend to the foot of the climb in village Göschenen, where good signposting guides you on the right path. Initially uphill past alpine meadows, followed by coniferous forest and towards the end winding through 6 hairpin bends and 3 not long unlit tunnels through rock formations. The last 6 km. are flirting with a 10% % gradient.
There is hardly any housing (camping along the river) and thus little traffic. The dam, covered with green grass, looms up and the road stops at the mountain guesthouse (supply / parking / public toilet). Past the barrier you can continue on asphalt roads for a while until you reach the dam of the green-blue lake surrounded by snow-covered peaks and the large Dammaglacier.
A more beautiful endpoint cannot be.

Hidden gem, Climbfinder is right!!!!!!

In Augustus 2019 deze wondermooie pittige klimroute volledig in de natuur met schitterend eindpunt op de stuwdam gefietst .
Na de afslag van de drukke rijksweg (Andermatt-Wassen)daal je tot de voet van de klim in dorpje Göschenen, waar goede bewegwijzering je op de goede weg loodst. Aanvankelijk opwaarts langs alpenweiden,gevolgd door naaldwoud en naar het einde toe kronkelend via 6 haarspeldbochten en 3 niet lange onverlichte tunnels door rotsformaties. De laatste 6 km.flirten continu met 10% stijgingspercentage.
Er is amper bewoning (uitz.camping langs rivier) en bijgevolg weinig verkeer. Alleen een toeristische busdienst toetert zich elk uur veilig door de blinde bochten.De met groen gras bedekte stuwdam doemt op en de weg stopt aan het berggasthuis (bevoorrading/parkeerplaats/openbaar toilet). Voorbij de slagboom kan je nog even geasfalteerd verder tot op de stuwdam van het groenblauwe meer omgeven door besneeuwde pieken en de grote Dammagletsjer.
Mooier kan een eindpunt niet zijn.

Verborgen juweeltje, Climbfinder heeft overschot van gelijk!!!!!!

Lovely climb, dead end at the end, so you have to go back ;-) Worthwhile.

Heerlijke klim, loopt op het eind wel dood, dus je moet terug ;-) De moeite waard.
