Description
From Oberwald, the road leads up into a pine forest, while lower down the still young Rhone can be seen. You reach the small village of Gletsch, where the road divides between the Furka Pass on the right and the Grimsel Pass on the left. The following kilometers offer an open view and a spectacular view of the Rhone Glacier, where the river of the same name also has its source. At the summit is a small alpine lake reflecting the neighboring mountains, and a wonderful panorama of the Bernese Alps opens up.
