Hi Pavan-
If you are an accomplished mountain driver, this advice may be irrelevant. Here it is, just in case.
We drove the Klausen fron Linthal to Altdorf a few years ago in wet and cloudy weather. The road lacks guardrails in many places ( as is the case with many other Swiss pass roads) and is quite narrow in places...too narrow for two cars to pass without one backing up. Downhill has right of way, and Post Buses have absolute right of way.
We did not find it an easy drive. Part of that was due to poor visibility, of course. If we do it again, we would drive from Altdorf to Linthal, so as to be on the inside lane as much as possible ( except for switchbacks, of course.)
If you are a hiker, you might want to consider Suvorov's route from Altdorf up and over Chinzig Kulm and possibly down into the Muottatal. Cableways will get you partway up there.
