Is this sufficient enough to tackle some of the big hills in Europe like the Alps?

The reason that I'm asking is because I own an On-One il pompino with the rear triangle re-spaced to 130mm. I'm thinking of adding gears and perhaps tour with it around europe next year. So rather than buying a new bike thought I'd use what i've got now.

I know people have done touring with this bike, but on a single speed.
