Begin this inspiring 3-part exploration in the quaint mountain village of Grindelwald before ascending to the peak of the First Cliff by cable car. Feel on top of the world standing on the glass-deck viewing platform 2200m (721ft) above sea level. Take a thrilling stroll across the peak for panoramic sights of the surrounding snow-capped mountain tops. Our knowledgeable tour guide will share riveting facts and tales of the surrounding region throughout the exploration. Continuing to the pristine glacier lake of Bachalpsee, the hike will engulf you with the beautiful alpine landscapes of the neighboring Bernese peaks. Look out for diverse wildlife, including adorably fuzzy marmots, wild Alpine ibex goats, foxes, rabbits, deer, and much more!
Concluding with a final voyage across the small mountain ridge of Schynige Platte, the guide will lead you to several discoveries known as the ‘Six Pearls.’ These include the karstic Güw area, where eroded limestones form to create an otherworldly landscape, and the unspoiled Faulhorn mountain.
