On the Wheel Traces of Goldfinger’s James Bond: from Furkapass Down to Gletsch

By Artborghi @artborghi

After Furkapass, close to where the most famous Aston Martin ever drove down the valley

take your chance to explore one of the most spectacular roads of Switzerland.

Sharp bends and steep down-hills

to reach the young, rapid Rhone river

cutting through Gletsch, at the crossroads of the Grimsel Pass (leading to the Bernese Oberland) and the Furka Pass (leading to Central Switzerland).

On-the-road, stop-and-go pictures shot despite almost-unforgiving motor-bike policemen… with my D800 plus 70-200 VR-II or 16-35 f/4. Click to magnify
