Day #6-7

Grimsel Pass - Chamonix
Mileage: 255 km (158 mi)
Timing: 7h (incl. stops)

Highlights: Furka Pass, Gotthard Pass

Today we rode from Switzerland to France, where we had a day off in Chamonix. We went to the top of MT Blanc, and I think it may have been the most amazing place and engineering feat I have ever seen. The first gondola landing was pretty, the second was like another world - we were up in the clouds, next to a glacier perched on a rock with incredible buildings and lookouts that defy gravity.

There are too many photos for one entry, check Day 6 part 2 for the pics of the peak at Mt BlancRead more
