The Furka Pass connects Andermatt in the canton of Uri with Gletsch in the canton of Valais and is part of the popular Three Passes journey over Furka, Grimsel and Susten. In summer, a ride on the nostalgic Furka steam train from Realp to Gletsch is an unforgettable experience. This abandoned hotel Belvedere is definitely worth a stop when you are on your roadtrip. It's nice to stop by and also visit the ice grotto from the Rhone Glacier. The place does get busy in summer and sunny weather. On such days I recommend you to pass by early in the morning or later evening. I visited also a couple of times in very moody weather and on such days you might be lucky to get some cool reflections in the ponds on the road.

Keep in mind to check the opening beforehand since the Furkapass is closed from late October to mid June.
