CyclingUp: Switzerland


Two areas with a high density of interesting mountain passes are Central Switzerland, including the Susten, Furka, Nufenen, St. Gotthard and Grimsel passes, and the canton of Graubünden, including the Albula, Bernina, Flüela and Maloja passes. Many climbs on this website are located in these areas. The part of Valais south of the Rhône is also well represented, including the hardest Swiss climb on this website, Lac de Moiry (1409 climb effort points). Many climbs in Switzerland are characterized by good road surfaces, little variation in gradient in the steep sections, and relatively wide and busy roads.
