For Swiss standards not the most beautiful climb and also a lot of traffic on the way. But it is a good option on the way to more beautiful climbs (Albulapass, Julierpass). I have cycled this pass in the rain, so maybe that affects my opinion. Good road surface.... read more

Voor Zwitserse begrippen niet de mooiste beklimming en ook veel verkeer onderweg. Maar het is een prima optie op weg naar mooiere beklimmingen (Albulapas, Julierpas). Ik heb deze pas wel in de regen gefietst, dus misschien beïnvloedt dat mijn mening. Goed wegdek.
