Susten Pass in Switzerland and roads surrounding Hasliberg filmed in 4k with a DJI Phantom4.
Susten Pass (German: Sustenpass) (el. 2260 m.) is a mountain pass in the Swiss Alps. The pass road, built from 1938–1945, connects Innertkirchen in the canton of Bern with Wassen in the canton of Uri. A 300 metres long tunnel crosses the pass at 2,224 metres. The Susten Pass links the Reuss Valley at the foot of the Gotthard Mountain with the Hasli Valley in the Bernese Oberland, and the village of Wassen in Canton Uri with Innertkirchen in Canton Bern. The Susten Pass road was only opened in 1945 and is the first pass road to be purpose-built for vehicular traffic. The architecturally spectacular Susten Road mainly serves tourism and is therefore one of the last to be cleared of snow, often remaining closed from the beginning of November until June.

Yet another great one. I'm not at all a cold weather person, living in the Southwest part of the US, and this gave me the chills. Thanks for another great share.

When was the video actually filmed?  

The Susten pass is closed in winter, gets scary when they take the barriers down!

Aloha Elektrica,

     It is easy to see why it is a tourist road.  Nice video!  Like Nigel says though do they have guard rails?  That really would be scary.

Aloha and Drone On!

They remove the guard rails late October before the snow removes/destroys them, they go back up early June when the snow melts and before the tourists are allowed up.  They make you feel safer, not sure I would want to make use of them though!  

My Photos are actually a nearby pass, not Susten itself.

You don't really need a drone when you can get photos like this while standing on the road!

Aloha Nigel,

     Actually, that is why I have the Phantoms - so I do not have to stand that close to the edge!  Mahalo for the explanation.

Aloha and Drone On!

Before they closed it, days before, probably the last day. There's also bits of Hasliberg.

There are guard rails when it's opened.

Absolutely spectacular during winter, by the way.
