A well known spot for motor bikers, and cyclists, Dan rode his bike over the pass one day. It's easy to see that there's going to be some great running here too, both above and below the Klausenpass.

One of the few runs starting with a descent. In this case, from Klausenpass into the Urner Boden.
This is a cow rich run.
