Hiking

The summit attraction “First Cliff Walk by Tissot” on Grindelwald-First is open daily. The summit circular route consists of a 40-meter-long single-cable suspension bridge, an ascent snail and a 45-meter-long viewing bridge. The circular route leads on the west side of the First summit and the Berghaus, at a dizzying height, along the steep rock face, back to the sun terrace of the First mountain inn.

The Cliff Walk is open all year round. It can be closed in bad weather.
A head for heights is an advantage!
