Best Grindelwald First Tours in May

Rising from the calm waters of Lake Zurich and framed by rolling pre-Alpine hills, First is a scenic mountain summit above the village of Grindelwald in Switzerland’s Bernese Oberland. Easily reached by the Grindelwald–First gondola, this alpine playground sits at around 2,168 meters and delivers sweeping views of the Eiger’s north face, Wetterhorn, and surrounding glaciers. Travelers come for the First Cliff Walk by Tissot, a dramatic metal walkway clinging to the rock face, as well as hiking routes leading to the turquoise Bachalpsee, where the peaks reflect like a postcard. In winter, First transforms into a compact ski and snow activity area, while summer invites mountain carts, trottibikes, and fresh air adventures. Compact yet spectacular, First blends accessibility with high-alpine scenery, making it a memorable highlight of any Jungfrau Region itinerary.
