This tour is all about riding the best passes and switchbacks in the Swiss, Austrian, and Italian Alps. Chris will crisscross the region in search of fabulous mountain roads, including Passo di Stelvio and Grossglockner.

Highlights of the trip include: Swiss Glaciers & Alps, King’s Ludwig Castles, Passo di Stelvio, Dolomites, Grossglockner.

From beautiful Munich, he'll ride into the Austrian Alps, warming up his sweeper riding skills before beginning to crisscross the region in search of some of the best mountain roads in the world.
