Susten pass - Spectacular mountain pass in Swiss Alps
Susten Pass is a mountain pass in the Swiss Alps. The road over the pass is asphalted. It was built between 1938 and 1945 and it links the Reuss Valley at the foot of the Gotthard Mountain with the Hasli Valley in the Bernese Oberland, and the village of Wassen in Canton Uri with Innertkirchen in Canton Bern.
The Susten pass is listed as a road of national importance in Switzerland's official inventory of historic routes. With its 26 bridges and tunnels it was regarded at the time as one of the most beautiful roads in Europe.
This gloriously twisty road reaches a thrilling elevation of 2,264 m above sea level, so you can count on it delivering some pretty darn epic views.
The road is open daily between the hours of 8am to 6pm, however, you can expect the road to be closed much of November through to June due to heavy snowfall. Therefore, you’ll be best just checking if the road is open before setting off on your trip to avoid any disappointment.
The drive over the Susten can be very well integrated into a classic motorcycle tour starting in Innertkirchen: Innertkirchen - Grimselpass to Gletsch, then over the Furkapass to Realp - Andermatt - Schöllenen - Wassen - Sustenpass to the starting point Innertkirchen.
Bicycling is another option if you're physically fit, but you'll need a bike with plenty of gears and reliable brakes.
