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.

The Grimsel Pass is one of the Alpine giants with more than 2000 meters of elevation. The route from Oberwald to Gletsch is easy to manage as the incline is relatively gentle. A small cog railway runs below the road up to the junction that leads to the Furka Pass. From Gletsch, straight sections follow, arranged in a zigzag pattern. The air slowly becomes thinner as the altitude makes itself felt. The summit reveals a view of the peaks of Valais and Bern, and Gletsch seems to lie many kilometers far below! A park with marmots makes the restaurant on the pass a very sociable place.
