Itineraries

Day 1

Journey approx. 380km

Your adventure starts in the morning at the meeting point. From there, we travel in a group to Friedrichshafen. We take the ferry across Lake Constance and let the first wonderful impressions take effect on us. Once we arrive in Romanshorn, we continue our journey to picturesque Lake Walen. In the afternoon, the first pass awaits us: the Klausen Pass at an altitude of 1952 meters. Our route continues towards Andermatt and over the Oberalp Pass at 2046 meters until we finally arrive at our cosy hotel in the canton of Graubünden.

Day 2

Passes approx. 150km

On the second day of our adventure, right after a delicious breakfast, we start our vehicles. Our first destination is the Oberalp Pass at an altitude of 2046m, then on to Andermatt. Just half an hour away, the legendary Furka Pass awaits us at an altitude of 2436m. It was here, at the Hotel Belvedere, that James Bond had a breathtaking car chase. A quick stop for photos and we continue on to the Nufenen Pass, which is even higher at 2480m, before turning off towards Italy and the beautiful Ticino. The highlight of the day is the ride on the cobbled Via Tremolo up to the St. Gotthard Pass at 2106m. After around 150 km through magnificent landscapes and countless bends, we return to the hotel. Plenty of time to ride the route again, right!

Day 3

Passes approx. 170km

Today, a distance of around 170 km awaits us. After a delicious breakfast, our adventure begins with the ascent over the Oberalp Pass towards Göschenen. The day brings us a highlight: the Susten Pass at 2224 m above sea level. After the lunch break, freshly fortified, we then conquer the Grimsel Pass at 2165 m - enjoy the breathtaking view! Then it's straight on to the Furka Pass at 2436 m, only this time from the other side, with a fantastic view of the Rhone Glacier. After around 6 hours, including breaks and photo stops, we arrive back at the hotel.

Day 4

Return journey approx. 330km

Our fantastic road trip through central Switzerland ends today. After breakfast, we start our journey home. We cross charming villages, drive over the Carrera Höhe at 943m to Chur and continue over the picturesque Sankt Luzisteig at 713m, always in the direction of Liechtenstein and Lindau on Lake Constance. In the late afternoon, our tour should unfortunately come to an end in Jettingen Scheppach on the A8, full of experiences and countless pictures, and you start your journey home.
