First Cliff Walk
Grindelwald
The First Cliff Walk by Tissot at Mount First in Grindelwald features a dramatic metal walkway and suspension bridge pinned directly along the cliffside. Reachable via gondola, it offers sweeping panoramic views of the Bernese Alps and alpine valleys below. Visitors frequently pair the scenic walk with other high-thrill attractions like the First Flyer zipline, Glider, and mountain carts.
Commenters are consistently awestruck by the stunning mountain vistas, with many expressing deep wanderlust and calling it a bucket-list destination. While the visual appeal is universally praised, prospective visitors frequently raise questions about costs, trip safety, and seasonal timing. A few practical concerns also surface regarding high winds and occasional partial closures of the walkway.
- Budget roughly CHF 64 per adult for the return gondola ride to Grindelwald First.
- Combine the walk with the First Flyer, Glider, or mountain carts using an Adventure Package.
- Be prepared for chilly and windy conditions along the exposed cliffside.
- Check mountain status in advance to avoid unexpected partial walkway closures.
