The view during the descent towards Gletsch is breathtakingly beautiful. However, you should concentrate on the ride and avoid letting your gaze wander.

Hotel Grimsel Passhöhe

Highlight • Rest Area

The Hotel Grimsel Passhöhe convinces with a beautiful ambience, with fine, regional specialties and stylishly furnished rooms. A stay is worthwhile because of the hospitality, the fine food, because of the beautiful morning buffet but also because of the silence at night and the great view of the lake and the surrounding mountains-

View of the Grimsel and Furka Pass roads

Highlight • Viewpoint

From here it's easy to go downhill. In Gletsch you have to decide: left up to the Furka pass to Realp (Uri) or right down to Oberwald in beautiful Goms (Valais).
