    Tips

    The road from Bettmerhorn to Eggishorn is difficult, not for beginners, but you also don’t need to be pro or do this daily (we’re from NL -> flat country as hell). You have to use hands and feet to cross at some points. But you don’t need equipment like ziplines or so. Some parts have steel cables to hold on to, but mostly not. It’s just really rocky and you don’t make a lot of progress (3km in 3 hours) so you need to stay focused for a long time. Since we started down at Fiescheralp, the hike was too long and heavy for us (would be 12/13km). No restaurants or places to pause really.

    Right between Bettmerhorn and Eggishorn there is a shortcut to go back down. We never made it to Eggishorn unfortunately! We did 10km with 666m altitude (to 2850m) in 6 hours. Normally, without the climbing, we do 12km and 800-1000m altitude in 4 hours. Just so you know!

        3 hours for the UNESCO High Trail is realistic.
