Itinerary
Day 1 - SchwarzwaldalpArrive in Switzerland, and transfer to Schwarzwaldalp Inn where we’ll meet for a drink and trip briefing, and enjoy our first dinner together. Day 2 - GrindelwaldAfter a hearty breakfast, we’ll complete the run over the Grosse Scheidegg pass and enjoy our first views of the Eiger and of the Grindelwald valley.Day 3 - WengenFrom Grindelwald, we’ll run up to the Kleine Scheidegg pass, directly under the Eiger, with views of stunning peaks and glaciers. We’ll take lesser-known trails through meadows and quiet alp farms as we run to the quaint car-free mountain village of Wengen.Day 4 - ObersteinbergOur day features a run through the waterfall-lined Lauterbrunnen valley, one of the Alps’ most dramatic valleys. From there, we’ll run up to the working alp farm of Obersteinberg, one of our favorite spots in all the Alps, where we spend the night.Day 5 - MürrenWe’ll run from our mountain hut to the car-free town of Mürren, perched above the Lauterbrunnen valley. We’ll have the option of a run through woods and past waterfalls, or over the peak known as Tanzbedeli, or “The Ballroom.” Day 6 - MürrenMürren is a unique, dramatically-located town, and today you’ll have a chance to explore the area. Options include: gentle pasture runs, a big push up to the summit of 2,970m high Schilthorn, or a complete rest day!Day 7 - GriesalpWe’ll run through traditional farming landscapes and pass several high-altitude farms, before climbing to the 2611m high Sefinafurgga Pass. Here, we leave the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau behind, and enter the wild Kiental valley. Day 8 - KanderstegWe continue through working farmland with cows roaming the pastures on the way up to Hohtürli pass. Our descent to Kandersteg will take us past an iconic Swiss treasure, the azure lake of Oeschinensee.Day 9 - AdelbodenStarting today and for the rest of the trip, we’ll be running on wilder, less frequented trails. It’s possible to take the gondola up from the valley floor and skip the first steep part of the climb to Bundergrat.Day 10 - LenkRolling meadows, smaller mountains and patches of forest are the order of the day as we head over the 1936m high Hahnenmoos pass to Lenk.Day 11 - GstaadOur last day of running goes through an intricate agricultural landscape of rolling pastures, rocky crags and forest patches. The high point of the Wasserngrat ridgeline is an exciting finale to the tour – but a less exposed descent to Gstaad is also possible.Day 12 - Depart from GstaadToday we say good-bye to the Bernese Oberland and depart for our post-tour destinations. Run the Alps can assist with Geneva or Zurich accommodations if your departure times require a night in town.
