View of Airolo

Highlight • Viewpoint

Beautiful view of Airolo, offering a short break from the cobblestones before continuing over asphalt into the village. But beware: there are short, hard cobblestone sections in between that are very uneven.

First tight hairpin bends of the Tremola

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The famous Tremola, with its 24 switchbacks, is a must for every road cyclist. With good basic training, a few meters of climbing under your belt, and gears suitable for mountain climbing, it's also doable for mere mortals. Yes, you do have to mentally prepare yourself for a good hour of uphill riding at an average speed of 10 km/h (or faster, depending on your fitness). But the suffering is definitely worth it. Once you've made it through the lower half, it just keeps getting better. You'll be greeted by the beautiful, slightly less steep switchbacks, and you'll see what lies ahead. It's a wonderful sight. Smile and ride on!

The cobblestone makes it a bit difficult to climb. Nevertheless, a nice tour!

View of the Tremola Cobblestone Road towards Gotthard Pass

Highlight • Viewpoint

One of the most legendary passes in Switzerland! The ascent over the cobblestones is tough, but every racing cyclist should take time to get to the pass. The descent towards Andermatt is really long and, if there are not construction sites, lots of fun. Unfortunately, there are also a lot of cars on the road here.

Tremola Road Hairpin Bends

Highlight • Mountain Pass

After many hairpin bends on the old pass road, you quickly reach the destination, the Gotthard Pass. Rough cobblestones, so lower your tire pressure!

Guex Monument at Gotthard Pass

Highlight • Monument

The Gotthard pass is located at an altitude of 2,106 meters and connects the canton of Ticino in Italian Switzerland with the canton of Uri in German-speaking Switzerland. Historically the San Gottardo pass was important for pilgrims who wanted to reach Rome: this, in fact, was one of the quickest passages to cross the Alps. At the summit there is the Piazza lake and the San Gottardo hospice, founded in 1237 .
