Grindelwald Trail 21

This beautiful 21.9km trail has a height gain of 1625m and is recommended from May to October. The trail starts in Grindelwald village with a short climb to Aellfluh where you’ll be rewarded with a wonderful view of the valley before continuing to the Berggasthaus at Waldspitz with its cosy interior and lovely sun terrace. From here, the trail rises steadily up to the picturesque Bachalpsee, passing along the lake on its way around to First. If you like a little adventure, there are ‘Mountain Carts’ to rent at First station which promise a slightly more rapid descent to Bort, where you can then hop on a Trottibike to cruise the last stretch to the valley floor. Another alternative is descending via cableway from First station.
