Long climb that actually starts in Visp. The 1st stretch is therefore very busy and less pleasant. This improves when the road splits and most of the traffic heads towards Zermatt. So the final kilometres become enjoyable, although the slot is very tough. The natural dam suddenly looms in the distance. Beautiful castle with a unique panorama.
Lange klim die eigenlijk begint in Visp. Het 1ste stuk is daardoor erg druk en minder aangenaam. Dit betert wanneer de weg splitst en het meeste verkeer richting Zermatt gaat. Zo worden de laatste kilometers genieten, hoewel het slot erg zwaar is. In de verte doemt opeens de natuurlijke dam op. Prachtig slot met een uniek panorama.
Wonderful ride. Good tarmac. Rear lights definitely recommended due to number of tunnels. I did the climb from Brig to Visp and picked up the route from there. The sting of the climb is in the last part.
Prachtige rit. Goed asfalt. Lampjes achter zeker aan te raden vanwege aantal tunnels. Zelf de klim gedaan vanaf Brig richting Visp en vanuit hier route opgepakt. Venijn van de klim zit in het laatste deel.
