On foot over the longest tunnel in the world
Details
Description
57 km or around 20 minutes' drive separate train passengers between the north and south of Switzerland thanks to the Gotthard Base Tunnel. However, it is more interesting to cover this distance at hiking speed on top of that.
Over 2448 metres in altitude and a distance of around 100 kilometres, a mountain world of extraordinary charm opens up.You can enjoy the diverse mountain nature between the north and south sides of the Alps. Get involved in the host culture of Uri, Graubünden and Ticino. In addition, you will always experience moments in which you are standing exactly above the tunnel - albeit 2000 meters higher up.
Geheimtipp
With the book "Gotthard Tunnel Trail" you can prepare yourself well for this multi-day hike before the tour
