ViaBerna Stage 15: Schynige Platte to First (Route 38)

Karte und Streckenverlauf

Über den Weg

Only stage 15 of the ViaBerna is stored here: from the mountain hotel at Schynige Platte along the ridge between Lütschinental and Lake Brienz, past Tuba and Loucherhorn, through the karst near Güw to the foot of the Faulhorn, then down past Bachalpsee to the First gondola station above Grindelwald. The optional detour to the Faulhorn summit inn is not included. Official reference: 17 km, +1100/−900 m, 5.75 hours. Complete federal track: 16.81 km, accumulated +1096/−897 m. A long high-mountain stage on narrow paths along exposed ridges, with a wide but quite steep descent to Bachalpsee. Weather on this ridge changes quickly and there is little shelter between the ends. Snow and ice can remain well into summer. The Schynige Platte railway runs only in the summer half-year, and the First gondola timetable must be checked separately. Summer hiking entry: snow-free conditions are required. No independently established fixed opening months, SAC T-grade or painted waymark colours are asserted. Federal closure/diversion layer checked on 25 October 2026: no reported closure or diversion intersects this exact route; absence of a notice is not an assurance that the route is open. Recheck official notices, local conditions, weather and any lift or railway timetables before departure. Official original name: ViaBerna, Etappe 15. Geometry licence: OGD BY.
