Grindelwald Trail

Experience the rich, green alpine scenery of the Bernese Oberland on this leisurely walking holiday through the foothills of the Swiss Alps. The mighty peaks of the Eiger, Monch and Jungfrau surround you as you meander along forest tracks past mountain villages rich in local tradition. The alpine air will refresh and invigorate the senses and the local cuisine will be a welcome sight after a days walking amongst the snow capped mountains.

Your journey begins in Interlaken, a popular tourist town located between Lake Brienz and Lake Thun. You start by heading up to the ‘Faulhorn’ where you are rewarded with magnificent views from the fabulous mountain hotel at the top. Heading to Grindelwald takes you down the mountain path or alternatively in a cable car to explore this popular mountain village.

The walk continues up to Kleine Scheidegg where you gain spectacular views across to the North Face of the Eiger. The final stage of the walk heads to Murren which is a small and cosy village. Its famous for its revolving restaurant and is where the James Bond film ‘On her majesty’s secret service’, was set. Being traffic free, the village is a nice relaxed way to end the holiday. The overall walking on this holiday is relaxed and there are always options to take cable cars or trains on certain days if you prefer the easier option.

Fabulous walking combined with traditional Hotel, Guest House and one Mountain Hotel accommodation. Breakfast is provided every morning and an evening meal is also included on 3 nights. Baggage transfer (except for day 2) and great backup are of course included to ensure that you enjoy every minute of your stay in the Swiss Alps.

Highlights:

  • The mighty trio of mountains - the Eiger, Monch and Jungfrau
  • Wild, colourful alpine flowers and lush forest walking
  • Exhilerating walking along mountain paths
  • Traditional, local swiss cuisine at your overnight accommodation
