5.0 by HansChristianBSuperb climb. Nice road conditions all the way up and not too much traffic (july). Gets better and better towards the top. Beautiful views over the valley. Be aware of a single small tunnel where the road is constantly wet which is unpleasent during decent. ... read more

Superb climb. Nice road conditions all the way up and not too much traffic (july). Gets better and better towards the top. Beautiful views over the valley. Be aware of a single small tunnel where the road is constantly wet which is unpleasent during decent.
After a fairly drab start this climb comes to life after the short descent at the halfway mark..waterfalls very nice views of the valley & then the overhanging road. Its well worth doing
The climb of the Klausenpass from Atdorf (Willem Tell) was a wonderful experience.Long but quite doable with all those views and flowers everywhere.Totally different scenery than e.g. Mont Ventoux.When you cycle a bit further to Wassen (Sustenpass) and Andermatt (Gothardpass,Oberalppass,Furkapass with the Rhone glacier) you come across climbs in more or less the same natural conditions.
Vroeger een week vertoefd aan het Vierwoudstedenmeer (Sisikon).De beklimming van de Klausenpass vanuit Atdorf (Willem Tell) was een prachtige ervaring.Lang maar best te doen met overal dat uitzicht en bloemenpracht.Totaal ander decor dan bv Mont Ventoux.Wanneer je wat verder fietst naar Wassen (Sustenpass) en Andermatt (Gothardpass,Oberalppass,Furkapass met de Rhônegletsjer) kom je beklimmingen tegen in ongeveer dezelfde natuuromstandigheden.
A fairly steady, and fairly easy (for Swiss Alps) climb. The pass itself is not that interesting, and the traffic can get quite heavy, too. I would say going there once is enough.
Climbed it last year during a short cycling trip to Switzerland. It's already my favourite cycling country, and this one, together with the Grimsel/Furka transition, is the cycling highlight. Beautiful col, stunning surroundings!
Loop Klausen - Pragelpas is perhaps even the most beautiful I have ever cycled.
Vorig jaar beklommen tijdens een korte fietstrip naar Zwitserland. Is sowieso al mijn favoriet fietsland, en deze is, samen met de overgang Grimsel/Furka dé fietshighlight. Mooie col, schitterende omgeving!!
Lus Klausen - Pragelpas is misschien zelfs het mooiste wat ik al gefietst heb.
