Depart for an early morning drive past five different mountain lakes to the idyllic Bernese Oberland. After a photo stop in the famous town of Interlaken, journey on to the charming mountain resort of Grindelwald. From the village centre, take the aerial cableway up to Mt First, where many different summit attractions await you! Venture on the unique First Cliff Walk presented by Tissot and enjoy stunning views of the cliff face from the 40-metre long single-rope suspension bridge at dizzying heights.

Take a seat inside the cosy mountain restaurant or on its spacious terrace and treat yourself to a delicious Swiss meal or snack. Discover the favourite pastime of the Swiss and hike to picturesque Lake Bachalpsee (6 km / 1.5 – 2 hours return with a moderate incline) or walk to the “First View” vantage platform. Rest on its shore and admire the reflection of the surrounding mountains in the crystal-clear mountain lake. Make your way back and enjoy the breathtaking views of the surrounding mountain peaks and the Grindelwald Glacier along the way. 

Back at the cable car station, an exciting range of optional adventure activities with thrill guarantee awaits you.

Whizz through spectacular mountain scenery on a mountain cart and Trottibike scooter or take the cable car past grazing cows and typical Swiss chalets down to Grindelwald. Enjoy time at leisure to explore the glacier village before you take a public train back to Interlaken, where you meet your tour guide for the return trip in the late afternoon.
