Tremola Valley, Switzerland. South side of the St. Gotthardpass, a 38 hairpin road that pre dates the car age. Build in a time when only horse and cariages or mules where there to take you over the Alps. Now only tourists use this road. Transit traffic use the tunnel, train or a new build passroad to get from northern Europe to Italy nowadays.

Great angle and one can only imagine what it must have been like in the early years. We have it so easy!

Reminds me a lot of the Grossglockner high alpin road - also the weather. Smile. But on the photo the bad weather looks great.

Great image Hans! I love it! Also, reminds me of Sherlock Holmes and Professor Moriarty's confrontation! Have you read it?
