Porsche Drive - Pass Portrait - Gotthard

Drive a Porsche over the most beautiful alpine pass in Switzerland. Once considered an insurmountable obstacle, the Gotthard Pass, with its elevation of 2,107 meters above sea level, and the bridge over the Schöllenenschlucht were thought to be the work of the devil. Today, those who take the convenient route through the Gotthard Tunnel can hardly imagine that. However, for those who love breathtaking landscapes and curves, there is a better route: on the southern flank of the mountain massif, an ancient road winds down into the valley, presenting itself in its historic attire and making the hearts of all sports car enthusiasts race. Tremola is the name of the cobbled pass road, paved with granite stones, which leads from the summit to Airolo in hair-raising serpentines, supported by walls up to eight meters high, and measuring six to seven meters in width. On its most spectacular section, it descends 300 meters in just four kilometers over 24 hairpin turns. Where once stagecoaches rattled along, today you encounter vacationing drivers, motorcycle tourists – and two famous Porsche drivers: Stefan Bogner and Jan Karl Baedeker. The dream team of mountain pass photo books is back. The Gotthard Pass provides an irresistible setting for Stefan Bogner, the photographer of car-free mountain roads, whose visually stunning works have turned "Porsche Drive" and "Porsche Drive - Stelvio" into masterpieces among travel descriptions. Breathtaking images of one of the most beautiful alpine passes in Switzerland. An original gift for Porsche fans. Bilingual in German and English. Bogner masterfully captures the curves and bends of this enchanting dream road, igniting the desire for a drive through the stunning mountain panorama of the Schöllenenschlucht. Jan Karl Baedeker's captivating texts make the route even more tangible – almost as if you were behind the wheel of your own Porsche. What are you waiting for?
