Ascent to Faulhorn (2681 m asl)

In the morning a quick transfer from the campsite in Lauterbrunnen to Grindelwald (parking Parkhaus Eiger, Endweg 1B). Grindelwald is a beautiful mountain resort, one of the oldest in Switzerland, which has not lost any of its charm for decades – the alpine huts are still decorated with flowering geraniums and above them are beautiful green pastures. All this is surrounded by mountains. As if carved by the northern wall of the Eiger, 3970 meters high, the shimmering slides of the Oberer and Unterer Grindelwaldgletcher glaciers and the crown-like shield of the Wetterhorn (3692 m above sea level).

From Grindelwald to the Brunniweid viewpoint. View of the Grindelwald scenery, on the left a piece of the Mättenberg wall (3104 m above sea level), in the middle in the valley the Ochs pyramid (3900 m above sea level), the Gross Fiescherhorn (4048 m above sea level) and the Unterer Grindelwaldgletcher glacier, on the right the Eiger (3970 m above sea level).

„Cheese“ farm under the top of First.

An elevated footbridge leads to the top of First. The cable car from Grindelwald also ends here, so you will meet people here much more than on the way.

View of Wellhorn (3191 m) and Wetterhorn (3692 m).

From left Wellhorn (3191 m asl) – Wetterhorn (3692 m asl) – Lauteraarhorn (4042 m asl), Schreckhorn (4078 m asl) and Kleine Schreckhorn (3494 m asl) – Mättenberg (3104 m asl) – Ochs pyramid (3900 m asl) nm) – Gross Fiescherhorn (4048 m asl) – Eiger (3970 m asl) on the right and Jungfrau (4158 m asl) and Silberhorn (3695 m asl) in the background on the far right.
