The Bernese Oberland and the Zermatt regions are two of the most spectacular areas in the Swiss Alps, offering an array of scenery that never ceases to amaze all who visit their heights. Mountain ranges with several glaciated peaks, surpassing 4,000 meters in height, frame lush valleys filled with alpine flowers and emerald blue lakes. An incredible network of trails allows the visitor to explore these regions with hikes and walks for all tastes. Starting in Grindelwald, perfectly situated at the base of the famous North Face of the Eiger, our day hikes take us to vantage points with unparalleled views of peaks such as the Eiger, Monch, Jungfrau, Wetterhorn and Finsteraarhorn. Continuing on to Kandersteg, we encounter even more dramatic mountain scenery, where the glaciers swooping down from the summits seem to reach our fingertips. Our easy-to-moderate hikes allow us to wander in reverie before this magnificent landscape. We top off our tour with two exceptional days in Zermatt, where the views of the Matterhorn and the Monte Rosa massif, with its crown of 4,000-meter peaks, are simply breathtaking.
