The Furka Pass in Switzerland is an absolute beast of a climb. The grade varies between 7-10% with sections reaching up to 14%, which makes it perfect for those who enjoy the thrill of pushing their limits on two wheels.
The scenery along the way is simply breathtaking, especially during the summer months when you can see snow-capped peaks towering above you in the distance. As a road cyclist, there's nothing quite like the feeling of conquering one of these iconic mountain passes.
If you're up for the challenge, I'd recommend starting at Andermatt and tackling the climb from there. It's a great place to rest and refuel before taking on the ascent, which will be around 17 miles long with an elevation gain of over 2,000 meters.
