What you can expect

Get your adrenaline pumping against the breathtaking backdrop of the snow-capped Mount First. On this thrilling alpine adventure, discover the mountain's pristine scenery by cable car, experience some of the exciting optional activities such as zipline, scooter, and mountain cart, and then enjoy some leisure time to explore the village of Grindelwald.

Depart for an early morning drive past five different mountain lakes to the idyllic Bernese Oberland. After a photo stop in the famous town of Interlaken, journey on to the charming mountain resort of Grindelwald. From the village centre, take the cable car up to Mt First, where many different summit attractions await you! Venture on the unique First Cliff Walk presented by Tissot and enjoy stunning views of the cliff face from the 40-metre long single-rope suspension bridge at dizzying heights.

Take a seat inside the cosy mountain restaurant or on its spacious terrace and treat yourself to a delicious Swiss meal or snack. Discover the favourite pastime of the Swiss and hike to picturesque Lake Bachalpsee (6 km / 1.5 – 2 hours return with a moderate incline). Rest on its shore and admire the reflection of the surrounding mountains in the crystal-clear mountain lake. Make your way back and enjoy the breathtaking views of the surrounding mountain peaks and the Grindelwald Glacier along the way.

Back at the cable car station, an exciting range of optional adventure activities with thrill guarantee awaits you. Take off on the gigantic First Flyer zip line or fly headfirst through the alpine landscape on the First Glider! Whizz through spectacular mountain scenery on a mountain cart and Trottibike scooter or take the cable car past grazing cows and typical Swiss chalets down to Grindelwald. Enjoy time at leisure to explore the glacier village before you take a public train back to Interlaken, where you meet your tour guide for the return trip in the late afternoon.

We had a great time at Mount First, the tour guide and bus driver were really nice and we had a lovely time exploring not only Grindelwald but also Interlaken too. I recommend going on this excursion.

Thank you, Santiago, for a wonderful day! My friend and I took this tour and although the weather was rainy and cloudy, we had a great time. (The poor weather might have kept the crowds away so that was a plus, it wasn't as crowded as other places we had visited during our trip.) We were able to ride the mountain carts on Mount First; it was very wet but a lot of fun! Unfortunately the other activities were closed due to the weather. Santiago recommended a restaurant in Grindelwald for fondue and it did not disappoint! Be prepared for a long day, but you'll have plenty of time to explore Grindelwald and Interlaken. And you'll have freedom to be on your own, not stuck with a group of strangers. This is a great tour option if you don't have your own transportation in the area, highly recommend!

Grindelwald and Mt. First are lovely! However, the tour company named Best of Switzerland tours through which we booked our tour were very disorganized. The two tour guides were nice people but very confusing. They confused us to the point that we were more worried about the logistics than enjoying the beauty the places had to offer. I would definitely go to these two places but not through this company. Grey line tours are very well organized. I went to two trips with them and had no issues at all!
