Grindelwald-First

The First Flyer is a Flying Fox variant that guarantees boundless freedom and high speeds. Perfectly secured, up to four people whiz along the 800 metre long steel cable from First to Schreckfeld at a top speed of 84 kilometres per hour. In winter too!

The winter hike from First is very rewarding: firstly because of the panorama, and secondly because the longest toboggan run in the world begins on the Faulhorn. Once you've pulled your sled up the mountain you can take it easy on the way back via the Bussalp to Grindelwald: There is nothing else to do except steer and brake for 15 kilometres.

First Cliff Walk by Tissot is a circular trail at dizzying heights at the First mountain station. A suspension bridge leads along the rock face of the First peak to a viewing platform that juts 45 metres out into the void and offers a view of the unique backdrop of the snow-covered 4,000-metre peaks.

The First Glider is an eagle that lets up to four passengers soar through the snowy mountain landscape at high speed. First it is pulled up backwards from Schreckfeld to First at a speed of 72 km/h. The return journey reaches speeds of 83 km/h.

Icy air sweeps over your face, snow crunches underfoot, and the panorama almost takes your breath away: on one side the view of the Swiss Mittelland towards the Vosges, on the other the Aletsch Glacier, lined with four thousand metre peaks. Standing on the Jungfraujoch, you can feel it with your first step: this is a different world. It's one you have to experience.

Grindelwald has two slope areas especially designed for children. On the Grindelwald-First adventure mountain, children can let off steam on the Lily Fun Slope with fun obstacles. On Kleine Scheidegg, two more Lily Slopes offer lots of skiing fun. Children ski free on Saturdays.
