In Gletsch Road 6 goes over in Road 19 and you`ll ride near the border of Italy.The 19 is in some areas still under Construction. The Map Route and GPS deviates here, so I used in these Areas the satellite image to get you through. Anyway keep riding direction Geneva road 9.In Geneva this road/route will end!
