[2024 Grindelwald Attraction] Travel Guide for First (Updated Dec)

Enjoy the Scenic Cable Car Ride in Grindelwald, Jungfrau Region, Switzerland!

This 5-day, 4-night trip to Switzerland was a dream come true for a snow lover like me. I specifically visited Grindelwald, located in the Jungfrau region. Here, you can take a cable car to First and enjoy the breathtaking scenery along the way. Visiting in winter, you get to see even more stunning snowy landscapes. The cable car ride offers views of the mountain scenery, and although most of it is covered in snow, you can still spot some wooden villages on the ground. I highly recommend setting aside a day to explore this area. It's absolutely worth it!

The most fun place in Switzerland is Mount First

Mount First is undoubtedly the 'most fun' place in Grindelwald. Once you leave the town, you will find the cable car station at the foot of the mountain. After reaching the summit by cable car, you can enjoy a series of fun activities without any interruption all the way down. The First Cliff Walk by Tissot is an aerial walkway built at an altitude of 2171 meters along the mountain wall. Walking on it, you cross steep cliffs and rivers, and you can gaze at the Alps from different angles, overlooking the wonderful scenery of Switzerland. The mountain restaurant offers snacks and coffee; sit down and enjoy the view of the Eiger peak, which is incredibly beautiful. From the First viewpoint, it is a 50-minute hike to Lake Bachalpsee. The path is quite sunny, but the scenery is absolutely cinematic, and there are many cows.

Swiss small poor travel! Money-saving strategy!

1 Who says Switzerland is not fun in winter!! It's too beautiful! There are snow mountains and greenery This time I spent about 7k RMB in total (see the last picture) Play: Use Interlaken as a transit station, and return to a place every day. The advantage of this is that it is very flexible. Everyone knows that Swiss weather depends on luck. In this way, you only need to decide where to go according to the weather of the day Transportation The plane was bought more than a month in advance. Zurich to go, Geneva to return Local transportation decisively swiss pass, very fragrant, tired can take the bus at any time, golden train to see where good can get off directly Hotel Living in the small town of Wilderswil, which is only 6 minutes away from Interlaken train, you can also take the bus from Interlaken ost. There is not much to eat in the town, usually buy in Interlaken. But the town has no light pollution and is very quiet, the stars are super good at night! The hotel faces the Jungfrau, and the snow mountain is just outside the window when the weather is good Exchange money Just find a UBS and settle in francs is the real-time exchange rate. One of my great pleasures in Switzerland is to compare the exchange rates in various places, really only UBS has no handling fee Play 1 Day 1: Play in Zurich, stay in Interlaken on the same day. Zurich train station can store bags, there are many notes can be flipped. It was New Year's Eve that day, and the town's fireworks were quite good 2 Day 2: Interlaken round trip Zermatt (Matterhorn). The weather is super good, but my friends and I have high anti. The winter reflection there is frozen and covered by snow, and it is very dangerous to go there without professional shoes, I suggest everyone to consider life safety 3 Day 3: Interlaken - Golden Train Lucerne - Rigi. Rigi is really beautiful, although it is cloudy, it may be my favorite mountain, if conditions permit, take a cruise is great!4 Day 4: Interlaken round trip Grindelwald (First Mountain and Dream Slope), stay in Geneva at night. The paragliding and projects were cancelled due to the strong wind that day, but the scenery is really good. Remember to check the last cable car down the mountain time

snowing in spring

#skiadventure We visited Grindelwald-First in May and were surprised to see snow in action. FIRST is one of the most popular places to visit in Switzerland. The First Cliff Walk is just about 300 meters long, and what we saw was just white scenery due to the snow. With this weather in May, we can imagine how snowy it will get in winter time. Maybe it is a sign for us to return during winter to experience some ski adventure. #mytripvlog

Highly recommend the Jungfrau region - First Mountain.

Jungfrau is a famous ski resort in Switzerland. First Mountain, on the other hand, is renowned for hiking. The mountain top features a cliff walk and a cliff observation deck, offering breathtaking views of the snow-capped mountains and a sea of clouds that looks like a fairyland. Taking the cable car up the mountain, you will pass through dreamy slopes, surrounded by stunning scenery that strikes the heart. [Recommended Activities]: ❤️Cliff Walk★ The CliffWalk, built along the mountain wall, is about 45 meters long, with a section known as the Skywalk, offering different angles to view the Alps. ❤️Cliff Observation Deck★ Another highlight of the Skywalk, the glass observation deck extends beyond the cliff, suspended in mid-air. It provides a unique backdrop of snow-covered 4,000-meter peaks. ❤️Light Hiking★ A one-way trip of about 50 minutes, passing through flower fields, streams, grassy slopes, and lakes, leading to the Bachalpsee, the jewel of the Alps. (In winter, it presents a different scenery)

🇨🇭First-Grindelwald

I’ve never been to such a picturesque town like First, Grindelwald, Switzerland. The cable car whisks us in three stages from the valley station to Grindelwald-First at 2,168 metres above sea level, a hotspot for connoisseurs and adventurers alike. The summit tempts visitors with breathtaking views of the north face of the Eiger and wonderful hikes. Lasting around two hours, the leisurely hike to the Bachalpsee lake is a must for anyone visiting the First area. The snow-capped Alpine peaks are reflected in the crystal-clear blue water – a pure mountain idyll! #first #Grindelwald #swiss

🇨🇭Grindelwald-FIRST(Summer)

Top of adventure-FIRST located at village Grinderlwald. It is a hotspot for adventure in the summer. Many beautiful hikes start from this area, including the trail to the Bachalpsee lake or Faulhorn mountain hut. Adventure seekers can add on the epic zip lines, mountain carts and/or kick scooters. Families will enjoy the alpine playground with amazing view. #grindelward #First #Switzerland

Alpine Wonders: Discovering Interlaken and Its Scenic Surroundings 📷

Interlaken is one of Switzerland’s most popular travel destinations. The town is nestled between two lakes and surrounded on all sides by mountains. 🏔️ Days could be spent in this small Swiss town as it’s an excellent base to explore the surrounding attractions. Here were my favorite locations on my 2 day Interlaken mini-break: 1️⃣ First Cliff Walk and surrounding hikes - Take the 30 minute train ride to Grindelwald and then take the gondola up to the First Cliff Walk. There are many hikes with spectacular views on top! Be sure to check the gondola operating times if you don’t want to walk down! 🚡 2️⃣ Rosenlaui - This one is a little bit further out but it’s definitely worth it! Take the train to Meiringen and then take the bus to Rosenlaui. The benefit to being slightly harder to reach is the lack of tourists! 3️⃣ Brienz - I made a stop at Brienz on my way to Meiringen because I read online it’s home to the most beautiful street in the world. The town is small and quaint and definitely worth checking out. 4️⃣ Lauterbrunnen - Another unmissable stop and located about 25 minutes away from Interlaken. The village is quite walkable but be sure to check out the surrounding hikes. When you’re done, take the train up to Wengen for spectacular views of the Lauterbrunnen valley below. From Wengen, you can take the gondola over the mountain and down into Grindelwald at the other side. Helpful Tip 💭: Switzerland has an excellent transport network, but it’s pretty pricy. It’s worth investing in the Swiss rail pass if you’re going to be there for an extended period. I opted for the half-fare card as I was in Switzerland for only five days. It meant I could use all transport in Switzerland for half the price. Check it out! #summerdestinations #travelgram #trip #instatravel #switzerland #mountainview #travel #travelinspiration

The best places to go in Switzerland! Personal sincere sharing

🇨🇭 The best places to go in Switzerland! Personal favorite rambling sincere sharing version 😄✈️ I was very idle during the New Year, looking at the photos of my trip to Switzerland last year 📸 Although it's not my favorite tourist country, it can also rank in the top five haha 😆 The scenery is beautiful, but it's really expensive 💸 Nature is actually similar wherever you look, but it's very relaxing 😌 And the fewer people, the better, and it's safe, so it's not as tense as other European countries 😊 Interlaken is a must-visit route 🏔️ A green field is really pleasing to the eye 👀 I have been looking for what a dreamy slope is, but isn't it dreamy to take a casual shot on the mountain haha 😍 Switzerland really doesn't need a filter! I went at the end of May, the weather was average those days, but there was still a season of green grass and snow mountains 🌿❄️ Then First Mountain and Jungfrau are also worth going to ✨ I think First Mountain is very cost-effective, the scenery is beautiful, and those amusement projects are also fun 🚠 I played that rope that slides down from the top (I forgot what it's called) a little bit exciting and you can see the scenery 😃 But there are really a lot of people, taking pictures or playing projects have to queue for one or two hours, so if you go to play, you should reserve more time ⌛️ And remember to bring sunglasses! Otherwise, your eyes will be a bit snow-blind 😎 There is actually nothing to play on Jungfrau, but it was very good that I could go out and punch in during the blizzard at that time ❄️ Otherwise, the money really drifted away 💸 If you want to punch in at the highest peak in Europe, you can go, anyway, you are here haha 🗻 I think Lake Brienz is also beautiful, really green lake water 💦 And remember to take a boat, it's beautiful 🚢 Anyway, Swiss Pass is free 😊 I personally like Rigi Mountain very much, it's beautiful and there are not many people 😍🏔️ And it's free, everyone (poor travel gospel) but also pay attention to the time, because the cable car is not very frequent ⏰ And it takes a bit long to go up the mountain, so if the itinerary is not very tight, you can go 😌 Finally, I added a chocolate factory haha 🍫 I just really like to eat, it's quite fun and not very expensive 💰 I will share other expired European travel records when I have time haha 😄✈️

[Switzerland] Frist Cable Car: Discover the beauty of the other side of the Alps

One of the most beautiful views in the Swiss Alps. Catch a cable car from Grindelwald and after an incredible 20-minute drive you reach the top of the mountain, where you can see some of the most majestic and beautiful mountains in the region, such as the Eiger and Jungfrau. Great tourist experience, nice bars and restaurants and a trip to the lake (500m walk) where there are several ski slopes, zip lines and other attractions. #2024Travel Wishes ~ Travel to Sicily, Italy

There are many hikes around Grindelwald First in Switzerland. You can do a nice walk to some lakes or climb the beautiful summits around.

Coming to First, deep in the snow-capped mountains, the surrounding white enamel makes people feel so pure, breathing this completely pollution-free air, stroking the white snow as the spring water is frozen into ice, this feeling is really wonderful. . The first time I saw snow like a snow wall. Except for the road we used to hike out with a forklift, the other places are white. I only know the feeling of snow blindness here, so I must bring sunglasses when I come back to the snow mountain!
