The Spectacular Glacier of the Susten Pass in 6K. The Susten Pass links the Reuss Valley at the foot of the Gotthard Mountain with the Hasli Valley in the Bernese Oberland. The Susten Pass road was only opened in 1945 and is the first pass road to be purpose-built for vehicles,
The architecturally spectacular Susten Road mainly serves tourism and is therefore one of the last to be cleared of snow, often remaining closed from the beginning of November until June.
With occasionally tight curves, the road leads down to Gadmen Village with its beautiful old houses. After the village of Nessental, a tiny road on the right hand side climbs to Engstligennalp, and to the mountain lake of the same name. This is the starting point of a popular hiking tour, which includes a spectacular cable car ride over the Jochpass to Lake Trübsee and further on in the direction of the holiday resort of Engelberg in Central Switzerland. Featured is also the Steinsee lake and the amazing Gwächtenhorn glacier / mountain.
The video was filmed with a DJI Inspire2 Drone with a Zenmuse X7 camera and a 24mm lens, using Apple's ProRes RAW codec in 6K UHD format
