007 Euro trip

[Worcester_spoon]

Off end of June for first proper zed road trip. Plan on doing more miles in 1 week than I've done in last 2 years! :driving:

Going with a buddy who is a James Bond fan so plan to drop in to a few film locations.

Plan is

Day one:-
Eurotunnel to Calais
Blast down to Montreux on Lake Geneva

Day two:-
From Montreux, head to Piz Gloria. Cable car, lunch at the top etc.
Then heading east through the awesome Furka Pass to Andermatt

Day three :-
Off to look at the Contra Dam before heading through the Stelvio Pass and ending up in Innsbruck.

Day 4:-
Innsbruck to Aachen via Nuremberg

Day 5:-
Aachen to Calais and home.

3,000km, 6 countries, 5 days, 2 amazing roads (Furka and Stelvio) and a whole heap of fun!

I imagine, if Worcester Spoon has taken 3 years not to post any pics, were not going to see anything this far down the line..shame...

Stelvio is awsome, we overnighted in Bormio 2000 and did it both ways on our way down to Slovenia and Lipica and back.

I've done it a few times both ways ,best was midweek early morn late june and plenty o snow, no sunday drivers ,great.
My personal fav is what i call the susten triangle, start at andermatt, Furkapass,grimsell, sunstenpass back to Andermatt , :driving:

 

[AlienZed]

Oh and then do it tother way another day

 

[brillomaster]

Would have done the andermatt loop this year, but corona got in the way. Next year for sure.

Will add Contra dam to the trip as well... would be nice to see the ski jump at Cortina but its a bit far, so maybe next time!
