About this mod
The Flüela Pass (German: Flüelapass, Romansh: Pass dal Flüela), perched at a majestic 2,384 meters (7,822 ft) in the Swiss Alps, isn't just a scenic route; it's a slice of history, engineering, and automotive passion. Nestled in the canton of Graubünden, it acts as a natural divide between the Albula and Silvretta Alps and marks the watershed between the Rhine and Danube rivers. Connecting Davos with Susch in the Engadin valley, the pass is celebrated as much for its stunning views as for its rich past. The Flüela Pass's story stretches back to the Bronze Age, evidenced by ancient spear tips discovered there. Its significance truly blossomed in the 13th century when Walser families used it as a vital trade route, transporting goods by mule between the Prättigau, the Lower Engadin, and even Tyrol. The modern chapter began in 1867 with the construction of the paved road we know today. Built to accommodate horse-drawn post coaches, this 27-kilometer (17-mile) marvel features 37 bends and gradients of up to 10%, a testament to 19th-century engineering prowess. While not a traditional race circuit, the Flüela Pass has earned a legendary status among driving enthusiasts. Its "rhythmic" and "fast" character, a blend of long straights and sweeping curves (especially on the ascent from Davos), sets it apart from more hairpin-heavy Alpine passes. This allows for a flowing drive, letting motorists soak in the dramatic landscape that transitions from lush forests to barren, high-altitude
