Spectacular passes, grandiose glaciers and deep gorges - on the Bear Trek in Alpine Switzerland, true mountain hikers get their money's worth. The Via Alpina leads through lush green valleys dotted with colourful flowers. The further up you hike, the deeper the gorges to the left and right of the trails become.
Of course, the three proud Swiss mountains Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau cannot be missed on the Via Alpina. Once you have left the three mountains behind you, you will finally reach the holiday resort of Adelboden-Lenk. By the way, despite the name "Bear Trek", you will probably not see any bears in the wild. Rather, the trek owes its name to that long ago time when you could still encounter wild animals.
Good mountain boots, sufficient fitness and a lot of puff - you will need these on the trekking tour on the Via Alpina in Switzerland. You will spend countless metres in altitude and hours in the fantastic mountain world. One peak follows the next and one view is more beautiful than the other.
Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau: These are the most famous peaks of the Bernese Oberland and form a striking trio visible from afar.
Blüemlisalphütte: At 2,843 metres it lies, the hut on the glacier. After a strenuous climb, you deserve lunch with a magnificent view.
Aerial cableway to Allmenalp: With the cableway you float towards the Bunderspitz. At the top, enjoy the panoramic view of the surrounding Swiss Alps.
Surefootedness, head for heights and good physical condition for alpine hikes are necessary. In bad weather, some shortcuts are possible by bus/cable car.
