Description
Start is in the village of Grindelwald, but those who want to shorten the 12.5-kilometer trail with 1872 meters of ascent can also take the train to the Eiger Glacier and start the trail from there. Adventurous hikers can also climb the Rotstock via the via ferrata. Good shoes and a via ferrata set, helmet, and gloves are required. The trail repeatedly has exposed sections and is recommended only for experienced mountain walkers with appropriate equipment. It is walkable from June to October in good and safe weather.
