Camping in the mountains of Corsica. Free camping is forbidden as much of the island is a protected nature reserve. Besides, the geography makes it impossible on most places and there are many attractive official campsites like this one. As long as there is space, privacy and stunning views, we are happy.

Mette finished her walk around the Mont Blanc as I was cycling over all the high Alpine passes. Now we are enjoying the island of Corsica together. This Mediterranean island is just WOW. ⁠

I arrived in Val d'Isère on a cloud covered afternoon. The rain was pouring down, visibility was none. I came here to cycle over the highest pass in the Alps: The Col de l'Iseran. It would have been a shame if I didn't have a view. So I stayed and waited. I left Val d'Isère early in the morning of a sunny day. Being patient was the right thing to do. ⁠

One of my surprises was cycling along Lake Como. This pretty lake in northern Italy is famous for it's picture perfect villages along it's shore. Off all the Alpine countries, Italy is my favourite. It has the beauty and the liveliness which makes travelling so much fun. ⁠

This is me cycling some of the highest mountain passes in the French Alps. Cycling these roads is great fun without traffic. Unfortunately you have to share these roads with thousands of nosy motorbikes and speeding cars. Because I want positive memories I made images like I was alone on the road. It's an illusion, but at least a positive one.⁠

From dusk till dawn on a random mountain top ⁠in France

Impressions of Berner Oberland, the Swiss region I crossed between Interlaken and the Mont Blanc. It was not the easiest landscape to cycle through as the road went up and down, but at least it was car free and stunning. ⁠

Most nights I'm camping on beautiful spots. When I cycle all day through beautiful landscapes, I want to spend the night in a beautiful landscape for sure. For this spot I had to climb an extra mountain but it was totally worth it.

The last couple of days I cycled through Switzerland and went over some mountain passes. Is there more joy than cycling countless hairpin bends on roads without cars? ⁠

I did it! I cycled the Passo dello Stelvio. With 2.557 meters it is the second highest paved mountain pass in the Alps. This pass is a mythical destination for many cyclists around the world, as the hundred switchbacks on both sides are pretty insane. For some reason I was the only one cycling here with a fully loaded bike 😀

The weather is not on my side this trip, but at least it delivers dramatic images. ⁠

I found stunning mountains in the Dolomites. But I'm not alone. I have to share the road with too much cars and motorbikes. Cars and people are everywhere except on my hidden camp spots
