Beautiful but tough trip. Pass very well to do but up to the pass it is a steep climb. The pass is authentic and beautiful views

May 27, 2026,2026.05.27 San Bernardino Pass. As Wonderful As It Only Can Be Ride 🩷🩷🚵‍♂️🚵‍♂️🩷🩷

What do you do after getting home at 1 a.m. and sleeping only a few hours? 🤔
Preferably the thing you love most 🥰🔗
True, we started far too late to avoid the enormous heat, which squeezed the juices out of us on the climb — quite literally. But there was no need to hurry, so every now and then …

May 13, 2026,2026.05.13 Passo San Bernardino. Salto Mortale and Love at First Sight Ride 🩷🚵‍♂️🩷

The forecast said ☀️☀️☀️ so how could I miss a day like this, especially with the next two expected to be cold, grey and rainy?
Passo San Bernardino had opened only a few days ago after winter. I hoped that on a regular weekday it would stay quiet. Besides, I wanted to take Swiss cycle route no. 6, which follows …

June 11, 2025,2025.06.11 San Bernardino Pass. Scared But Open / Towards the Future Ride 🌻🚵‍♀️🌻

The San Bernardino Pass from Bellinzona is so semi-perfect: a long, boring ride on the main road, slowly climbing through villages. The pass only becomes beautiful later on. I prefer to drive up the pass from Hinterrhein

September 10, 2023,Tag 5: Von Sufers über den San Bernadino Pass nach Bellinzona 🇨🇭

Half time! We made it a little over half 😍😱
Today we went over the San Bernadino Pass on 8 km and 450 meters in altitude over the Swiss Alps ⛰️
I had some respect at the beginning, but the switchbacks were better than I thought! 🚲
Once at the top, it was only downhill from now on. Unfortunately, the …
