One of the world’s best one day cycling loops. We meet up at 9am after breakfast for a 9.15am rollout. First up is the famous Furka Pass before the wild Nufenenpass and finally the incredible Gotthard Pass. We climb the old Tremola road with the top 5km of beautiful, smooth cobbles. We have lunch at a cafe on the route (budget 20CHF) and should arrive back in Andermatt by mid afternoon for a couple of drinks and R&R before dinner.

A thrilling day of riding featuring three climbs and going over 2,000m twice.

After regrouping at the summit, the last 20km is pan flat and we spin all together into St Moritz.

One last day featuring one small climb & one large climb. After rolling out of Zernez, we ride over the Ofenpass and along the valley before turning onto the highest pass of the week – the Umbrail. The climb finishes at the border but we keep going a few more kms and end the week at the summit of the Stelvio Pass before descending into Italy for our final night.

Our mechanics are on hand to help pack bikes on Saturday after the ride or Sunday morning. We have one last breakfast & then head back to Milan late morning.
