August 10, 2024,Eigerbike Challenge Marathon 50 km
Now the day had come for the 50km marathon at the Eigerbike Challenge. The preparations in the last few weeks made me very positive. In 2021 I had to drag myself to the finish line because of stomach problems. I definitely didn't want to experience that again.

In 2021 I completed the Eiger Bike Challenge with the Bio Bike. Even then I found the panorama amazing, although enjoying it was a bit neglected. So I really wanted to do this tour again, as did my father. So we went on the tour with the e-bikes. The mountains and the panorama are constant companions. It's unbelievable how lucky …

August 14, 2021,Eigerbike Challenge 50km
The Eigerbike Challenge 50km was hard work. A real challenge, which I underestimated a bit. But in the end I made it to the goal, even if the way there demanded a lot from me (mentally and physically). But the joy and pride at the finish was huge!
Conclusion: Top organization from A-Z, great panoramic scenery, a little more training …

August 23, 2024,Grindelwald - Bachalpsee
The tour started in Burglauenen, where there is free parking. From there, we continued along the Schwarzen Lütschine to Grindelwald. Then the constant climb to the Grosse Scheidegg began with an elevation difference of 1000 meters.

The destination, the Bachalpsee, was reached after a total of 1500 meters of elevation. I was particularly excited about the trail from the Bachalpsee …

Weather improvement was predicted. That was true at the beginning and at the end. But unfortunately again no comprehensive panoramic view of Bachalpsee. But 30 cm of snow on the Faulhorn summit 2,680m. Overall, a very nice tour that could be done entirely by e-bike except for the last 340 meters up to the Faulhorn and only the rest on …

I had planned the tour to the Bachalpsee for this summer for a long time. However, for various reasons it somehow didn't work out. That was different for today, the weather forecast for Grindelwald was great, it was during the week and I had time. I also shared this plan at our TPE Zyschtigstreff and spontaneously found a motivated companion …

For the first six kilometers I follow a trail along the "Schwarze Lütschine". From Grindelwald the mountain road leads for around ten kilometers to the Grosse Scheidegg. I follow the gravel path, later the somewhat narrower hiking trail to the First, later to the Bachalpsee. Now comes the climb to the Faulhorn mountain restaurant. The path is very steep in …

Today, in glorious autumn weather, I was finally able to do the tour to Bachalpsee. I was accompanied by Urs, who was almost a local and knows all the trails in the area. So we had a great descent with slight detours and an aperitif at Salvi's at the end.
