In today's newsletter, we head to Austria and Switzerland, two of Europe's greatest motorcycle destinations.
The Grossglockner. 2,500m above sea level. 36 hairpins. The highest surfaced mountain pass in Austria, and the kind of road that stays with you long after you've ridden it.
As our guide Felix puts it:
"The temperature drops, the hairpins tighten, and then you crest the top, and everything goes quiet. Every single time, someone in the group just stops and stares. I never rush that moment. The Alps will do that to you."
Alpine Altitude is 13 days and 1,960 miles of some of the finest roads in Europe. Starting from Folkestone, you'll cross five of Switzerland's greatest mountain passes, tackle the legendary Grossglockner in Austria, and finish in the Champagne region 🥂
