Why this trip
Anyone who sees the shadow of the Eiger north face over the village in the morning understands why Grindelwald is a fixed point for hikers. From here lifts such as the Firstbahn and the Pfingstegg cable car climb to height, and from there begin the paths that make the mountain truly tangible. The path to the First and on towards the Bachalpsee is a classic stage with a great panorama and a manageable level of challenge. It becomes more demanding around Kleine Scheidegg and Männlichen, where the Jungfrau Region offers long high-level trails between alpine pastures and rock faces.
If you save ascent with the lifts, you can keep your fitness for the actual route. The hiking season runs from June to September, although snowfields in higher areas may still lie in early summer. The stay can be combined with Interlaken on Lake Thun and Lake Brienz or with Lucerne and Engelberg. Which days you would rather spend on the summit ridge and which in the valley is something you agree with the planning of Adventure.
