Urnerboden Plateau

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Pass

The Urnerboden is located almost exactly in the middle of the Klausen Pass climb from Linthal. The flat plateau offers a welcome breather before the beautiful final climb (600 meters in altitude).

We set off at 8 a.m., still wearing arm warmers, but soon put them in our pockets. We cycled briskly to Linthal and up to Urnerboden. There was a quick coffee break here and then quickly moved on before the valley heat caught up with us. With little car traffic but quite a lot of motorcycle traffic, we climbed up …

March 8, 2024,Richtung Klausenpass gegen den Föhn

First racing bike tour in 2024. Since the snow fields still extend deep into the valley, I decided to test the racing bike after the winter service. The destination was actually Linthal, but then it became Urnerboden. I really enjoyed the pass journey, there was hardly any motorized traffic and the pass is still closed.
