About this place

Links Welschenrohr and Günsberg over the Jura, among the steepest Swiss pass roads with grades up to 25%. It is no place for wide or long vehicles, caravans or trailers, and oncoming cars sometimes cut the bends. The south side from Solothurn is kept open in winter, but in snow or ice the north side down to Welschenrohr is closed.
