Furka Pass-Switzerland
Furka with the promotion of 2,429 meters and 7,969 ft is a high mountain pass in the Swiss Alps associate with Gletsch, Valais with Realp, Uri. The Furka Overlap Bahn line through the Furka Tunnel bypasses the pass. The base tunnel opened in 1982 and replaced a tunnel at 2100 meters. The Furka Pass was used as a location in the James Bond film Gold finger.
One curve on the east side of the pass is even named James Bond Strasse. At the sign, there is a lookout point with a small parking area. Visitors can also park next to Hotel Belvedere, close to the top of the pass on the west side, and take the short walk to the Rhone Glacier Ice Grotto. The glacier moves 30–40 meters a year and the 100-meter-long tunnel and ice chamber can be visited from June when the road opens.
