After climbing the Grimsel pass I accidentally discovered it when I stopped on a parking lot and the big traffic signs caught my attention. No extreme percentages but adventurous little extra with hardly any traffic that you should definitely cycle on. Found on few websides for mountain bikers, hence the tip to climbfinder.... read more

Absolutely worth the diversion, if you have climbed to the top of Grimsel it would be shame not to finish it off. A narrow road from the top of the pass, traffic should be light but take care on the blind corners. Well worth the diversion, If you go early in the season the road might still be closed.

Wonderful extension of the Grimsel Pass. Not easy after the long climb but not too difficult as an addition either. When I drove there very quiet, especially compared to the Grimsel Pass itself. Narrow though, so watch out for oncoming traffic.

Prachtig verlengstuk van de Grimselpas. Niet eenvoudig na de lange klim maar ook niet te lastig als toevoeging. Toen ik er reed erg rustig, zeker in vergelijking met de Grimselpas zelf. Wel smal, dus oppassen met tegemoet komend verkeer.

Highly recommended!

If you have just done the Grimsel you might be a bit tired, but this climb is really a wonderful contrast to the busy Grimsel pass. Almost no traffic as described. There are some steep parts in it, and everything is also above 2000 metres, but in principle it is very doable.

The views are really beautiful and you feel like you are cycling something special.

I descended to the reservoir itself, which was not so special. But I did go up another 800 metres in 10％. And then I enjoyed the way back.

Nb Different from what is written here, I understood from a 'employee' that cyclists do not have to stick to the timeslots, but of course they have to pay extra attention.

Absolute aanrader!

Als je net de Grimsel hebt gedaan ben je wellicht wat moe, maar deze klim is echt een prachtig contrast met de drukke Grimselpas. Bijna geen verkeer zoals beschreven. Er zitten best wat steile stukken in, en alles is ook boven de 2000 meter, maar in principe is deze heel goed te doen.

De uitzichten die je hebt zijn echt prachtig en je fietst voor je gevoel echt iets bijzonders.

Ik ben nog afgedaald naar het stuwmeer zelf, dat was niet zo bijzonder verder. Wel weer even 800 meter aan 10％ omhoog. En dan genieten van de terugweg.

Nb anders dan hier staat vermeld, begreep ik van een 'medewerker' dat fietsers zich niet aan de timeslots hoeven te houden, wel extra goed opletten natuurlijk.

Na het beklimmen van de Grimselpas toevallig ontdekt toen ik even halt hield op een parking en de grote verkeersregelingsborden mijn aandacht trokken.
Geen extreme percentages maar avontuurlijk extraatje met amper verkeer dat je zeker moet bij fietsen.
Op weinige websides voor bergfietsers terug te vinden, vandaar ook de tip aan climbfinder.
