Via Ferrata

Reviewed By Vaulers2033 - Chicago, United States

Rather than explain what this is like, just search “Murren Via Ferrata “ on YouTube and you’ll see exactly what you’re in for. It’s one of the most amazing things we’ve ever done! You do need to be in good shape and it’s one of the best leg workouts you’ll ever get. We were sore for days but it was worth it! Allow some extra time before or after to walk around Murren. It’s a beautiful town with some great shops and places to eat. I highly recommend taking a Go-Pro on this adventure. I bought one just for this trip and it was worth every penny because we came back with amazing footage. They don’t rent them but you can ask for a helmet with a mount although you should bring your own device that connects the camera to the helmet mount. Also be sure to turn the power off when you’re not taking video since the hike is longer than the battery life. The new cameras all come with voice control so turning it on and off is easy and hands-free.

Summer Gemel Schweiz

Summer Sledding Mannlichen Enjoy +6 km exciting and safe sledding fun. Ride the unique Summer Gemel sled down Mount Mannlichen. Zoom past smooth slopes and green meadows full of wild flowers and fluttering butterflies. Feel alive and free amid one the most amazing alpine scenery. All it takes are solid shoes and fitted outdoor cloths. Everything else is taken care of. Due to the construction of the new cable car on the mount Mannlichen (2019) we are not running this summer. But we'll be opening up again in May 2020 with a refurbished race track - Yeah! See you then again. P.S. If you want to get the T-Shirt, Cap or Badge, you can still do so on www.summergemel.ch The Summer Gemel Pit Crew

Lauterbrunnen Valley Waterfalls

Reviewed By erikapst72 - Jacksonville, United States

Swiss Alps are breathtaking, all worth it...ready for my next adventure. The Alpine region of Switzerland, conventionally referred to as the Swiss Alps, represents a major natural feature of the country and is, along with the Swiss Plateau and the Swiss portion of the Jura Mountains, one of its three main physiographic regions

Pfingstegg

Experience a day full of adventures on the Pfingstegg, the one and only family destination above Grindelwald. Hiking enthusiasts can hike up the mountain using one of our hiking paths and epicures enjoy a ride up with our gondola and a spectacular view over the glacier valley. At the top you will find several attractions for fun, to slow down and for curiosity: the toboggan, the brand-new fly-line and our fabled treasure hunt. And for a unique dinner, make a reservation for one of our gondola dinners.

2 8yr olds loved the short cable car ride up to the toboggan run which is on a loop so you can go on as many times before you come down. 8 yr olds were allowed on the run alone. We went on with ours first to get an idea of the speed, rules and general feel of the run as suggested by the staff. 1 was confident to go on a couple of runs by himself and loved it. Free small bouncy castle zip wire and playground for younger ones plus the cafe were good ideas. To save money we only paid for the cable car up the mountain and walked down which took about 90 mins with the kids. Whilst some parts of the descent were a bit hazardous both children managed it with little or no assistance. Definitely recommended...both parents also lives the toboggan!

The key element of the First Aerial Cableway is the cableway with six-seater gondolas travelling from Grindelwald up to First via Bort and Schreckfeld. The gondola cableway has a capacity of up to 1,200 persons per hour with a travelling time of approximately 25 minutes. Aside from the gondola cableway, Firstbahn AG also has three chairlifts and two ski lifts.
