Basel to Lugano

Cycling on this route will provide you with a whistle-stop tour of the geographic and cultural diversity of Switzerland in a small area.

After the start in Basel, crossing the Jura is the first challenge, but as a reward, the next stage through the Swiss middle land from Aarau to Lucerne is almost completely flat.

After the spectacular landscape along the Lake of Lucerne into the “heart of Switzerland” you transfer from Altdorf up to the legendary Gotthard pass.

Through the Tremola ravine down to Airolo, you will use the old, cobbled pass road.
