General information

Description: 


Wengen - Kleine Scheidegg -Grindelwald


This trail leads from Wengen to Kleine Scheidegg (2061m) to Grindelwald. This  is a pass between the two well-known mountains: Lauberhorn (like the FIS ski race) and the Eiger. There are many activities on the Kleine Scheidegg such as restaurants, ski lifts, a cog railway and hotels. We will await fantastic views of the Lauterbrunnen valley, the Grindelwald-Fiescherfirn, Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau.


Meeting point: Wengen CC 63

Starting time: 10h45 precisely. We will not wait for latecomers. You can try to catch up with us if late, but we don't always stick to the route.

Route: The second part of the hike leads through open terrain with little shade, so we recommend to have adequate sun protection.  mostly T2, not T4. 

Pace / fitness level: Moderate, please consider that this is not a hike for beginners. There is a short version of you still want to join. You could do only half of the hike and take the cable car.🚠 

Transportation: Everyone goes to the meeting point on their own.


Let's enjoy a nice day in Berner Oberland, close to the alpine triumvirate.

    Important rules about Hiking Buddies

    • You have until 12 hours before the start of the event to drop out from the hike.
    • Participants not showing up will get a "NO-SHOW" flag on their profile, which decreases significantly your chances to be accepted on future hikes.
    • The organizer is no professional guide, participants must be responsible for themselves (and that means to do some research about the routes and its potential dangers / tricky sections to know if you have the experience for it).
    • Not a rule, but on your profile, ideally, add a picture of you and select the country you're from (not the one you're living in), to show how international the group is. :)
    • Feel free to read this post on Facebook to know more about how Hiking Buddies works.
    • no 🐕 dogs 🐶 🐩 
    • not cats 🐈‍⬛ 🐱 🐈 
    • not cigarettes 🚬 
    • alcohol 🍺 allowed ✅ but not other drugs
