Klausen Pass - driving adventure in the Swiss Alps
As you probably know, Switzerland is home to a large part of the Alps, an extensive mountain range that stretches across eight countries.
While the Swiss Alps may be best-known as a prime spot for skiers and snow lovers, the Alps are also a delight during the summer months.
The Klausen Pass runs directly through the Alps, from Linthal to Altdorf, passing through picturesque villages and past breath-taking scenery.
It is almost 50-kilometer pass road from Altdorf (Canton of Uri) through the Schächtental over the pass summit to Urnerboden and further to Linthal (Canton of Glarus) is considered challenging but rewarding, with spectacular views.
After Unterschächen, the road climbs in two long hairpin bends and runs along the northern flank of the Schächental, offering a spectacular view of the Alp Aesch with its romantic 100 meter-high Stäuben waterfall.
A little further along the Pass from Urnerboden, you’ll reach the summit. Surrounded by towering mountains and offering amazing views, it’s the perfect place to take a break.
The Klausen is the first alpine pass to reach coming from Zurich in the north and somehow the high alpine gate into the Alps.
The village of Bürglen is situated at the entrance to the Schächental. It is said to be the birthplace of legendary Swiss hero William Tell.
