Klausenpass 1952 m

Today I planned to ride the Klausenpass 1952 m with a 1300 m climb over 21 km. My first stop was at the Mountain Airport Mollis, where I delivered some gifts for my sister, who lives in the Canton Glarus.

It was a beautiful day with temperatures up to 35 degrees and never lower than 32 degrees during my 6 1/2 hour ride over 130 km and 1,876 m up.

So I had a 2nd stop at Circus Mugg where my oldest niece lives and works. Unfortunately no one was around. Still I enjoyed some "Powerbar" and the nice view on the Tödi (3614 m) in the distance; the higest mountain of the canton Glaris.


The climb I managed just under 2 hours. Which is about 15 min slower than my best. No surprise as the temperatures were really hot. And I had before the climb already driven 50 km in the hot tempartures. My benchmark for the Klausen is 1:50 the time it took me to run up with Swiss national Marathon champion Köbi Marti at the 1989 Peace Run.
