The Eiger

Reviewed By Graeme74 - Glasgow, United Kingdom

Lucked out with a perfect sunny, cloudless day for this simply stunning route. Was a bit nervous reading some reviews as I only had running shoes and clothing (and a small back pack with thin sweater and water/snacks). Climb out of Lauterbrunnen to Wengen is sharp but lovely - in the trees but regular gaps to see the incredible Lauterbrunnen valley and waterfalls. Once in pretty Wengen, it was a beautiful hike/run along above the valley all the way eventually to Kleine Scheidegg, passing a few train stops and info signs for exhilarating ski runs. The views of the Jungfrau, Monch and Eiger - as well as countless other snow peaked beauties and look backs down to the valley were incredible throughout. After some rest and drink/food in Kleine Scheidegg, it was a short walk/run up to Eigergletscher station, which is nestled right under the start of the Eiger Trail. I was advised there was snow still in a round a dozen gullies on the path - so was a little early in my well worn grip running shoes. But that, and the scree elements were very easy with just some basic care when crossing those short sections (usually 10-20 careful side steps were enough.) I can imagine earlier in year it would be quite different, and require better equipment and boots - and also on a different day in heavy wind/rain would be a totally different prospect - so carefully consider weather, as well of course your fitness. But there were many others of varying fitness and hiking experience out there, so I think on a sunny day in mid-summer it’s a very doable trail as long as reasonably fit. The traverse under the Eiger’s north face is incredible - watching the rock climbers above was breathtaking! A few short, steep ups and downs, but nothing overly taxing in each of those and the path is well defined and worn-in throughout. Amazing waterfall just before main descents start before Alpiglen. From there, it’s a long, steady and at times fairly steep descent for many km’s into Grindelwald - could be difficult if you have knee or ankle issues, but fun otherwise. Can’t recommend enough for a few hours to see some of the most incredible and varied scenes in the world! Again, just consider the weather, your fitness, time of year, equipment/gear needed and water/snacks. Have fun ????????

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.
