Nufenen - Trail
Tour 25
Beautiful and new tour with lovely flowing downhill sections. The ascent to the Nufenen Pass is rather demanding with around 1200 metres in altitude and an average gradient of 10%, but this part is rewarded with a sometimes silky smooth downhill. The first stage between the top of the pass and the Griessstrasse is only recommended for technically very good bikers. The lower section from Griessstrasse and especially from Ladstafel is easier to ride. However, a certain basic knowledge of trail riding is also required here.

Andermatt – Tiefenbach – Furka
Tour 30
A pure riding pleasure awaits you on the Urserental Höhenweg. This tour leads you along the Furkapass-road, from Tiefenbach to the top of the pass. From here you can switch to thre trail with the best view over the Furka and Grimsel area, and than it will lead you all the way down to the valley of Obergoms.

Oberalp – Maighels Pass
Tour 31
The car transport Furka takes you to the Kanton Uri (20 Min). The ascent to Uaul Cavorgia is sweaty but rewarding in terms of flora and panoramic views. It gets increasingly barren once you reach the Oberalp Pass, and in the end you will even discover high alpine sourroundings.
