Description
"Big Pintenfritz" is, at 15 km, one of the longest toboggan runs in the world – a former Faulhorn innkeeper gave the toboggan run its name. Starting point is First (2166m), which you can reach from Grindelwald by cable car. From there, a marked winter hiking trail leads in about 2 hours to the Bachalpsee and further to the Faulhorn (2680m).
On the Faulhorn, there is a reward for the effort: a unique panoramic view over many parts of Switzerland. The toboggan run now leads from the Faulhorn via Bussalp over 15 km down to Grindelwald. It is worth resting and enjoying the sun and Swiss delicacies at the Bussalp restaurant.
