🗻 Grimsel Pass (2,164 m)
Sculpted through granite, Grimsel is raw and majestic. The lake views and towering dam make this a scenic and industrial marvel. We took a moment at the top to breathe in the elevation and alpine energy.
Furka ahead!
🎬 Furka Pass & James Bond Strasse (2,429 m)
Back on legendary tarmac — Furka is pure driving pleasure. Famous from Goldfinger, the pass blends tight hairpins with long stretches and sweeping views over the Rhône Glacier. We passed by the iconic Hotel Belvédère and the James Bond curve.
It was busy!!!

At this stage, Marek and Dom were getting ready to part ways with the group. It’s been an absolute pleasure and a lot of fun driving alongside them! Looking forward to the next time we meet on the road!
Even though temperatures are starting to drop, if there’s a chance for the OG to enjoy some proper fresh air, we’re all for it!
We wanted to stay forever but we need to move on ....
Time to get some gas ....
We were looking for the San Bernardino Pass before hitting the hotel but we were caught in a queue ..
And then came the heavy downpour!
So yeah we're off to the hotel taking motorway.
🏁 Final Destination: Hotel Seeblick, Sufers
Our day ended at a familiar and beloved place — Hotel Seeblick, right by the lake. The same venue from our 2022 tour, and still just as charming. A well-earned dinner, stories shared, and engines finally at rest after one of the greatest alpine days we’ve ever had.
🔧 Car & Crew Notes
Temperatures ranged between 13°C at the high passes and over 30°C in the valleys.
Cars handled impressively — only minor heat-related concerns.
Plenty of GoPros, smiles, and friendly waves along the way.
New bonds forged, old friendships reinforced.
