Awe inspiring!
Hanspeter was amazing. He tailored three days of hiking to our comfort level and the weather. He planned hikes so that we covered most of the valleys in the Grindelwald area and were able to experience the key view “spots”! Highly recommend Hanspeter for any skill level as he is an experienced mountain guide and climber!

Renata Autran is a great guide.
Renata Autran was great. She was very knowledgeable and explained things clearly. She was very considerate and thoughtful. She printed out our vouchers for us ahead of time which made it very easy to get onto the gondolas. And she prepared a very nice picnic of cheese and meats for us.

Excellent and Personalized Experience
We had a FANTASTIC day with Nik! He immediately made us feel so welcome, like we were on a hike with an old friend. He checked in with us consistently throughout the hike to make sure we didn't need breaks for rest, water, or snacks. He gave us several options and let us choose what fit our group the best. His information about the area and personal stories made the day just that much better. He's lived in the area for several years and gave us great recommendations on how to spend our last day in Interlaken. He recommended checking out the waterfalls in Lauterbraunen and explained how to get to this hidden gem that we never would have known about. Will definitely be recommending this to any friends who will travel in the area.
Operator response
Wow thank you so much for this amazing feedback Erica! We're so glad you enjoyed the hike with Nik and we're sure he will be pleased to hear that everything was well organized and you had a lot of fun. Thank you again and we can't wait to have you on our next hike soon!

Grindelwald Day Hike with Hans Peter
The highlight of our trip to Switzerland was our hike in Grindelwald with our guide, Hans Peter. Hans Peter took us to several out of the way locations that offered spectacular views of the Grindelwald valley and mountains. We experienced an avalanche off in the distance that was an incredible sight to see. Hans Peter provided insightful comments regarding the valley, mountains, glaciers, streams ands wildlife. Hans Peter also took us to a secluded location for lunch with amazing views of the Eiger, Jungfrau and Monch. We would highly recommend working with Hans Peter if you plan to explore Grindelwald.
