Montreux - Col du Gd St. Bernard

A cycling route starting in Montreux, Canton of Vaud, Switzerland.

Overview

About this route

Route leads from Lake Geneva (Montreux) about 45 km through the Rhône valley in beautiful mountain scenery without significant climbs to Martigny. Here begins a pleasant 35 km ascent to the St. Bernard Tunnel. After that, I had 8 working km on a very narrow road (no holes, but very bumpy, without guardrail - descending offered a wonderful view at a speed of 35 through the unobstructed landscape, also large tourist buses traveling on this narrow road). At the Col du Gd St. Bernard, there are extensive tourist offers. I do not regret my excursion into Italy - with the sun at my back, I could enjoy the panorama better than during the ascent against the sun.
