Roadtrip Switzerland - Tour de Suisse

With a few more days to spend and somewhat promising looking weather ahead we entered Switzerland by way of Arlberg pass, after online registration with the Swiss government due to Covid-19 regulations. 

Da wir noch ein paar Tage mehr zur Verfügung hatten und die Wettervorhersage vielversprechend schien, ging es über den Arlbergpass ins eidgenössische Alpenland, für das wir uns vorher online anmelden mussten.


Sightseeing was mostly drive-by or drive thru, however our road trip gave us some ideas for future vacation plans.

An den meisten Sehenswürdigkeiten sind wir lediglich vorbei- oder durchgefahren, allerdings hat uns die Tour einige Anregungen für zukünftige Urlaube beschert.

Remüs: an Italian style village and castle ruin
 Tschanüff 


Castle Tarasp: Transylvania in Switzerland?

Albula pass road: never heard of but fun


Solis Viaduct: impressive Swiss engineering and part of the UNESCO world heritage


Splügen: a typical Swiss village in typical Swiss scenery


San Bernadino Pass: popular with all wheels




Lake Lugano: we came, saw, and and turned away quickly

Monteggio: pretty and quiet



Vallemaggia: where the adventure lives





Lago Del Sambuco and Lago Del Naret: pretty in rough






Bignasco: the Swiss answer to boon docking




Lukmanier Pass, Lai da Sontga Maria and Val Medel: mountains and valleys





Campadi Rein: Swiss camping at its best


Schneehüenerstock mountain: hiking in bad weather





Oberalp Pass: the world's highest lighthouse

Schöllenenschlucht: how to conquer a gorge, Swiss style


Homeward bound...
