This one was a great one! From Sisikon to Urigen on the Klausenpass. Quite steep, but a lot of fun, and very beautiful. I split the Klausenpass on purpose, and was glad about it. Not late after I arrived at my hotel a big thunderstorm started. And I love passes, while exhausting, they’re almost a bit like meditation. More images the coming days.

Finishing the Klausenpass. The night was quite spectacular, a lot of thunderstorm and a lot of lightning once I arrived in Urigen.

Originally I had planned a longer tour for that day, but decided to cut it a bit short with the help of the train.
