We are here in the Upper Rhine valley riding to the west with the direction to Disentis. In the background you can see the Oberalp Pass. Disentis is already at 1,140m/3,740ft altitude and is the entry point to the Lukmanierpass. Here the road was completely refurbished, but later on gets worse and very tight. Watch out risk for accidents.

We are on the Lukmanier pass road, just after the last tunnel at the end of the hells canyon, just before we reach the village Medel and look up towards the pass summit.
