The quiet mountain climb to Obersschappina is a spectacular, beautiful Swiss climb that not many people know about. There are two ways up, but we will take the route via Sarn which is 14km long, averaging 8%. Once you start the climb turn right and keep climbing before turning left into the hamlet of Sarn. Here the road meanders along a small mountain road to Flerden where you once more join the road to Obertschappina here you have the choice to stop, refresh and take in the view. Or, to carry on to the Glasspass with another 3km of climbing averaging over 9%. Enjoy the wonderful descent coming the different way down!
