The Furka Pass in Switzerland also made famous by a scene from James Bond 007 "Goldfinger'
is a gorgeous Swiss mountain pass. The pass also features the Rhone Glacier,
once a famous attraction, but now disappearing year by year, probably because of global warming.
The video also features the once famous Hotel Belvedere, once a major hotspot and celebrity destination
and now closed because of the Rhone glacier's retreat and loss of appeal.
View cinematic footage of the Historisches Alpinhotel Grimsel Hospiz and the dams around it,
such as the Grimsel Dam. he first certified guesthouse of Switzerland
was located at this exact place, way back in 1142. In 1932,
the Grimsel Hospiz caused quite a sensation as it was the first
electrically heated house in Europe.
Environmental considerations had to be taken into account when the hotel was completely renovated
between 2008 and 2010 and the entire hotel is now heated by using hydroelectric waste-heat.
As a historic 4-star alpine hotel in the heart of the KWO catchment area,
the Hotel Hospiz reigns majestically above the Grimsel reservoir lake (Grimselsee).
The Furka pass is a high mountain pass at an elevation of 2.431 m (7,976ft)
above the sea level, located in one of the snowiest regions in Switzerland.
It's one of the world's most iconic, exhilarating and exciting drives,
through the Swiss Alps. The pass was immortalized by the
Aston DB5 / Ford Mustang car chase in James Bond's Goldfinger.
It's one of the highest mountain roads of the Alps.
The pass links the Ursern valley in the canton of Uri with the
municipality of Goms in the canton of Valais.
It's one of the highest paved roads in the country,
and the road over the pass was built in 1867.
As you drive along the pass's road, you may see the train that travels the Furka Pass
chugging along through the mountainside,
creating a picturesque scene for you to hold in your memory.
Countless tourists are attracted by the unique mountain panorama,
the Rhone Glacier with its ice grotto, the attractive options for hiking,
climbing and skiing tours, as well as the reopened steam railway.
The drive is definitely worth it. The second part of the climb
includes much more straight forward road, but it's also less steep.
Don't forget your camera! The road encompasses miles
of stunning views through twisty hair pin corners,
high elevations and steep grades. The Furka Pass also takes you
within a few hundred meters of the Rhone Glacier,
source of the Rhone river. Here you can park up and walk up to and actually inside the glacier itself.
Travelers can actually walk through the glacier by booking a tour.
Though the tunnel through the glacier is only 100 meters in length,
you will want to make sure you dress warmly, because it doesn't take long
for your body temperature to reach dangerous levels.
Although the glacier has retreated dramatically in recent years,
it still really is an incredible site, around 7km in length.
In 1964, the hairpin bends on the Furka pass earned their place
in cinema history thanks to the James Bond film 'Goldfinger'
in the scene in which Tilly Masterson attempts to snipe Goldfinger.
It was filmed in front of the Rhone Glacier.
If you want the full James Bond experience,
you can even visit at the iconic petrol station (Now closed!) in Andermatt
where Bond and Tilly Masterson part ways following her failed attempt to assassinate Goldfinger
it's now part of the Aurora Hotel. But you'll probably look anything
but Bond-style glamorous when tackling it: steep slopes,
hairpin bends, switchbacks and sharp, blind curves make
this a white-knuckle ride to all but the most experienced (or crazy) drivers.
At least the road's wide and perfectly surfaced – this is Switzerland, after all.
