Sensory overload- 2000kms & 20 high passes in Europe

Here’s a pictorial record of a few places I’ve been recently. 4 days, 2000+kms, 19 mountain passes in 3 countries. Lifes tough in 30 degree C heat, but I had a great time, hope you enjoy the pics too!

Galibier - France

Mt Cenis- Italy

Iseran- France

En route to the Swiss Alps and days of pleasure.

View from the Grimsel

Water cascading over mountain tunnel on the Susten

View down to Airolo from the Gotthard

The original and paved Gotthard

Hungry Marmot on the Furka

Guess where?

Check down in the valley for the 48 hairpins

Another pass, another 2500 metres or so!

Super lunch stop spot

Ice cream stops mandatory!

Klausen

Check the waterfall!
