Preparations are well under way for our 2019 “Italian Job” Road Trip. – Route takes us through spectacular Swiss Passes before hitting Italy
Grimsell, Furka, Gotthard passes and “La Tremola” – All feature on this journey to Italy
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. The entire clip from the film below was filmed on the Furka, Luckily nowdays the road up from the Belvedere Hotel is properly paved. We will find suitable places to stop and get some footage – Drones out too.
