Description

Experience the thrill of the Alps at Grindelwald First, where dramatic landscapes frame a day of elevated mountain adventure. From panoramic cliffside paths to exhilarating alpine activities, every moment unfolds against a backdrop of sweeping glacier views and refined mountain discovery.

Your day begins with a comfortable pick-up in Basel, followed by a scenic journey into the heart of the Bernese Oberland. As you approach Grindelwald, the landscape opens into a dramatic alpine setting. From the village, board the Firstbahn gondola and ascend toward the summit, with views of the Eiger North Face and surrounding peaks of the Jungfrau region unfolding along the way.

At the First plateau, the experience adapts to your pace. Enjoy a quiet moment or lunch at the panoramic mountain restaurant before setting out on the highlight of the day — a scenic hike to Bachalpsee, one of the region’s most beautiful alpine lakes. For more adventure, signature activities such as the First Flyer, First Glider, or a mountain cart or trotti bike descent offer a different perspective on the landscape.

Throughout the day, your private driver ensures a seamless and flexible experience, allowing the journey to unfold at your preferred rhythm. After a day immersed in fresh alpine air and striking scenery, relax on the return to Basel, with lasting impressions of Switzerland’s high mountain world.
