A historic Alpine crossing above the cobbled Tremola.
The Gotthard Pass at 2,106 m is one of the great historic Alpine crossings between Airolo and Andermatt, shadowing the cobbled Tremola, the longest cobblestone road in Switzerland, up its wall of hairpins. Storied and scenic; mind the cobbles, the motorbikes, and weather that turns fast at the top.
