Swiss Alps Trip 2010
Swiss Alps Trip 2010
On the Sunday we meet up in Barr and drove onto the first of the three passes called the Sustenpass the weather on the first pass was the best out of the three passes.
This pass was built in 1938 and finished in 1945 and climbs to a height of 2224 mitres.
On from there we headed for the seconded of the two passes called the Grimselpass this was not as high as the first pass it still managed to reach 2165m
After stopping for dinner as the weather was changing very quickly we moved on to the Furka pass this is the most extreme pass as this is where the James Bond movie Gold finger film was shot and reached a impressive 2436m high.
Here some info for those that would like to know a bit more about the passes we went through...
