I only see so many strategically well-placed bunkers from World War II thanks to the fact that I travel by bike. Interesting how they are small and yet so different.

At this intersection, under the treetops, you can relax from your journey and watch the passing cars. Personally, I stop there every time. It's truly special...

This small beautiful pass is best approached from the village of Hottwil. Excellent smooth asphalt surface with a climb from Hottwil to the base of 3% then increasing to 6-7% for the remainder of the climb. There is not a lot of traffic on this route so it is a real pleasure to ride this route in all seasons and weather.
