About this region
The Grisons or Graubünden, more formally the Canton of the Grisons or the Canton of Graubünden, is one of the 26 cantons forming the Swiss Confederation. It is composed of eleven districts and its capital is Chur. The Alpine ibex is the heraldic symbol of the canton.
The Grisons is the largest and easternmost canton of Switzerland. It borders the canton of Ticino to the southwest, the canton of Uri to the northwest, the cantons of Glarus and St. Gallen to the north, as well as Liechtenstein and Austria to the north and Italy to the south. It is one of the three large southern Alpine cantons, along with Valais and Ticino. Its German name, Graubünden, translates as the "Grey Leagues", referring to the canton's origin in three local alliances, the League of God's House, the Grey League and the League of the Ten Jurisdictions. The Romansh name of the canton – Grischùn in Sutsilvan and Grischun otherwise – translates literally as the "Big Grey".
It is the only officially trilingual canton and the only one where the Romansh language has official status; Swiss German, Swiss Italian and Romansh are all native to the canton. In 2019 the canton had a population of 199,021. It is the least densely populated canton of Switzerland. The only large city in the canton is Chur, the majority of the population living in mountainous areas. The canton is a major tourist destination with numerous Alpine resort towns, notably Davos and St. Moritz.

About this route collection
The Alps, a mountain range in Europe stretching from the French Mediterranean coast in the southwest to the Pannonian plain in the east, almost always guarantee beautiful routes. It can hardly be boring there. The many passes, views and variations in the landscape make the Alps a true motorcycle paradise. Driving around the Alps is really quite an experience. You have not yet passed one corner or the next one is coming. While climbing from the valley, see the landscape change from wooded slopes with splashing waterfalls to alpine meadows where there is no longer a tree and asphalt roads that cut the eternal snow. Arrived at the top of the mountain, enjoy phenomenal views of the surrounding snow-capped peaks, as if you were standing on the roof of the world.
The 7 routes of this collection lead you from Austria to the Netherlands via Italy, Switzerland, Germany and a few kilometers France. Various passes are visited, including the Tonale, the Gavia, the Stelvio, the St Gotthard, the Grimsel and so I can go on for a while. Each one of them is a pleasure to ride.
You would think that after the Alps the fun is over, but nothing could be further from the truth. From the Alps you drive through Switzerland into the Black Forest. You can enjoy yourself for a week in that area alone. From the Black Forest you drive to the Eifel, also a famous area among motorcyclists. Consider, for example, the busy Nürburgring.
The last part of the route is on the motorway, because then you have arrived in a non-interesting area: the Ruhr area. Busy, drab and gray. Reason to do this via the highway, then you will get through it quickly. Driving inside is not an issue here. You drive from one town into another, often with lots of traffic lights and correspondingly heavy traffic.
A few attractions are discussed per route in the review. These often tell something about the history of the area in which you are driving. Fun facts, quite educational. Often there are also indicated places where you can find some entertainment, for example a suspension bridge at a great height. You are completely free to visit these sights, you can of course also determine your own interesting points.
But the most important thing you've probably traveled to this area for is simply driving. And as mentioned above, you are in a true motorcycle paradise where the steering is fantastic!
Each route ends at a hotel. It is of course not an obligation to use these hotels, you can always find another place to stay in the area, you are completely free. However, my experience is that they are all simple but good hotels for a very reasonable price. They are known and can be booked via booking.com.
