I'm curious do they impose speed restrictions there much like in US or is it like Autobahn in GM? Because I don't see any HP cops hiding behind the corners or bushes somewhere on your road trip. I like to drive those roadways someday. On my bucket list. Btw, on such a narrow mountain pass, they shouldn't allow trucks & buses to pass through there. That's like an accident waiting to happen!

Great video!
I'm leaving from Milan to Switzerland in few days.
My pick would be lucenene, Interlaken, lauterbrunnen, Murren including Jungfraujoch.
I was thinking to include a scenic drive the only thing is I'm not use to drive in mountains and my car is mini.
Would you have any suggestions on my itinerary? Going and come back in different road to Milan. Thank you.

When my dad and I did Furka on our Grand Tour in the summer of 1980 the Rhone Glacier was level with Hotel Belvedere. A massive wall of ice blocking the valley, easily visible from the road. And today you don't see it at all
Also, the road at the top of Klausen Pass passed through 2. 5-metre tall snowdrifts in June.

Some of those edges of the road by precipitous drops could really do with some Armco.
Nice Mercedes 190SL 28: 27.
And an E-type 38: 25.
And oh, very nice, that's a Maserati I think following it 38: 26, isn't it.
Whew, that Mini was shifting going downhill 38: 30!

Great memories of driving through Furka Pass last year same time in September. Wife and I visit to our friends in Valendas that afternoon and came across Super Car Owner's Circle auto rally in Andermatt on our way over Oberalp Pass. Always love this road) Beautiful drive!

the furka pass is a lot like the borgo pass. i kept expecting to see Dracula's castle around the next curve. switzerland looks like an awful place to live. drive 6 inches to the right of your lane and its a 300 foot drop down to the rocks below

Weve been there on September last year and I still dont have words to describe the beauty of these roads! I believe Switzerland is the most beautiful country in the world when it comes to drive on mountain roads

I see the garage/filling station used in Goldfinger is now the site of an entry to a quarry. Pity the glacier can not be seen from the road, the scouring of the rocks (now white) shows the extent it once was.

I see a piece of the old railway line is still in place now replaced by a base tunnel. I rode the Glacier Express from Zermatt to St Moritz in 1967 on this old stretch of railway.

Thanks for the ride-along. I know this road well by motorcycle, but don't have time to sightsee as I'm focused on the road and traffic.

Very nice video. What cam did you use for that? And how did you fix it so it can deliver such smooth and vibration-free images?

I travelled through Furka Pass, that turned my head sometime but not much. We had crossed over to the other side.
