Furka Pass (French: le col de la Furka), with an elevation of 2,429 metres (7,969 ft), is a high mountain pass in the Swiss Alps connecting Gletsch, Valais with Realp, Uri. The Furka Oberalp Bahn line through the Furka Tunnel bypasses the pass. The base tunnel opened in 1982 and replaced a tunnel at 2100 m.
The Furka Pass was used as a location in the James Bond film Goldfinger. One curve on the east side of the pass is even named "James Bond Strasse". One can park his car there and enjoy a great view over the Valley. Visitors can also park next to Hotel Belvédère, close to the summit, and take the short walk to the Rhone Glacier Ice Grotto. The glacier moves 30-40 metres each year, and the 100 m long tunnel and ice chamber can be visited from June when the road opens.

CAN'T STOP WATCHING THESE VIDEOS!!! I'M ADDICTED TO THEM...THANKS FOR THE RIDE AGAIN...

[@LikeToDrive]

We’ve been there on September last year and I still don’t have words to describe the beauty of these roads! I believe Switzerland is the most beautiful country in the world when it comes to drive on mountain roads 😍

[@SteenWinther]

When my dad and I did Furka on our Grand Tour in the summer of 1980 the Rhone Glacier was level with Hotel Belvedere. A massive wall of ice blocking the valley, easily visible from the road. And today you don't see it at all 😥 Also, the road at the top of Klausen Pass passed through 2.5-metre tall snowdrifts in June.

[@sharuk98ala]

Nice thanks for the video, do more such videos in swiss

You are a brave driver! You must be used to these passes.. beautiful!

Great memories of driving through Furka Pass last year same time in September. Wife and I visit to our friends in Valendas that afternoon and came across Super Car Owner's Circle auto rally in Andermatt on our way over Oberalp Pass. Always love this road)) Beautiful drive!!

I see a piece of the old railway line is still in place now replaced by a base tunnel. I rode the Glacier Express from Zermatt to St Moritz in 1967 on this old stretch of railway.

[@At0m1c420]

Yes, the DFB runs heritage steam stock on the old rail line in summer.

[@mjordan812]

[@briancooper562]

I see the garage/filling station used in Goldfinger is now the site of an entry to a quarry. Pity the glacier can not be seen from the road, the scouring of the rocks (now white) shows the extent it once was.

[@Yaka95]

The glacier used to be so beautiful how it went all the way down to the valley, however nowadays you can still walk to the glacier and even walk inside of it which is amazing

[@kaushaltravels]

Great video!! I'm leaving from Milan to Switzerland in few days. My pick would be lucenene, Interlaken, lauterbrunnen, Murren including Jungfraujoch . I was thinking to include a scenic drive the only thing is I'm not use to drive in mountains and my car is mini. 😬 Would you have any suggestions on my itinerary??? Going and come back in different road to Milan. Thank you.

Greetings from Afghanistan. I would like to do road trip like this in my country with caravan but unfortunate roads are not as good and scenery not as green. Also suffer from IED’s. On my last trip the caravan was blown up. But apart from that and did I mention snipers, it would be interesting trip and I hope one day to invite people from all over world after I have set up my travel agency in Helmand Provence.

Hi, i would like to ask which mount and camera you are using to record roads as long as possible ? Great channel.

It is ironically similar to Afghanistan's Salang pass.

the furka pass is a lot like the borgo pass.....i kept expecting to see Dracula's castle around the next curve.....switzerland looks like an awful place to live....drive 6 inches to the right of your lane and its a 300 foot drop down to the rocks below

[@elmerfrejoles98]

I'm curious do they impose speed restrictions there much like in US or is it like Autobahn in GM? Because I don't see any HP cops hiding behind the corners or bushes somewhere on your road trip. I like to drive those roadways someday. On my bucket list. Btw, on such a narrow mountain pass, they shouldn't allow trucks & buses to pass through there. That's like an accident waiting to happen!

[@hanspetertrefalt1451]

Elmer Frejoles there are speed restrictions here. 80 km/h outside of built up areas and 50 km/h in town. The Furka Pass has a limit as to the with of vehicles. It is limited to 2.3 m. Of course there are always foreign coach drivers not spending money on street maps or GPS indicating those types of restrictions....

[@elmerfrejoles98]

@@hanspetertrefalt1451 so cops there are hiding then, much like in US highways and they chase you down if you're caught speeding! I could see why some drivers like the autobanh in GM, where there's no speed restrictions, limited only to your car's capability and driver. I also heard lesser collisions/accidents than speed restricted highways.

[@AppleFreak675]

If you go faster than the speed limit you have to pay A LOT and can end up loosing the licence
