Three Alpine passes, all topping 2,100m, stacked into a single day. The long route links Passo San Gottardo, the Furka and the Nufenen for roughly 110km and 2,900m of climbing out of Ambrì in Ticino.
The route
Out and back from Ambrì over three Gotthard-region cols: Passo San Gottardo (2,106m), the Furka (2,429m) and the Nufenen (2,480m), the highest and steepest, saved for last. Around 2,900m of climbing with almost no flat, plus a shorter single-pass ~53km option.
Late-August, Ambrì
Highs around 17°C and lows around 8°C, but it has dropped to 0°C. Rain on 58% of days. Pack for the cold end, not the average.
