Lets do this very beautiful hike from Griesalp to famous Schilthorn (James Bond fan, anyone?). Very diverse landscapes and great views on the way and especially from the top. Hike ends on Schilthorn. Cable car down from there or optional an extension possible by skipping the cable car and walking down part or all the way. 

---------------------

Please be aware this is a strenuos hike (1700m up) that includes a T4 part, which is quite exposed, crosses some scree and and needs a bit of scrambling in some places. You need to have a very good condition for the ascent and should not be scared of height or exposed terrain. 

We will walk a moderate pace (350m/h - 400m/h elevation). In order to make the last cable car down from Schilthorn at 17:50 and also to allow us some time on the top and to have a look at the James Bond exhibits, we cannot be too slow and take many pauses.

We will have a short picnic for lunch, please bring food.

Due to the time constraints, you need to be able to finish this hike on your own if you are not able to keep up or need extra pauses. Make sure you have a map, you know the routes and can navigate on your own.

This is not a guided tour and I am not a tour guide. Instead, this is a get-together of individuals who themselves are responsible for their judgement, choices and actions. The organizer cannot be held responsible for any accidents or other adverse events.

Before the event it is your own responsibility to assess and prepare appropriately:
You need to understand what is foreseen, assess the difficulty, risks and dangers and the expected weather conditions. Furthermore, you need to assess the requirements regarding experience, capabilities and fitness condition, and judge if you personally have the necessary experience, capabilities and fitness level.

You yourself also need to assure adequate preparation, equipment (boots, clothes, gear...) and insurance cover and do everything as if you were going by yourself.

During the event it is also your own responsibility to apply your own judgement and to take considerate responsible decisions yourself, fully within your own responsibility and judgement.
