- Eiger Trail — Hike at the foot of the infamous Eiger North Face for jaw-dropping, up-close views of the sheer rock wall climbers obsess over; the trail packs alpine history, dramatic scree slopes and a real sense of scale you don’t get from a valley viewpoint.
- Männlichen → Kleine Scheidegg (the ridge “Royal Walk”) — A short, elegant ridge walk with a postcard line-up of Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau the whole way; it’s unbelievably photogenic at sunrise or late afternoon and full of summer wildflowers and easy viewpoints for a relaxed day hike.
- Bachalpsee (from First) — That classic mirror-lake shot: glassy alpine water reflecting jagged peaks. The route has airy ridgelines, alpine meadows and often curious marmots; it’s simple enough for most hikers but feels remote and cinematic.

- Lauterbrunnen Valley & Trümmelbach Falls — A valley of waterfalls: sheer cliffs, waterfalls tumbling into green meadows and the Trümmelbach glacial falls inside the mountain (you can walk inside via tunnels). It’s where Swiss valley scenery becomes a sensory experience — thunderous water, steep walls and tiny cliff villages like Lauterbrunnen and Mürren.
- Faulhorn Summit (from First or Schynige Platte) — A longer classic ridge hike with rewards: an old mountain hotel at the summit, panoramic 360° views across the Bernese Alps and good chances for golden-hour solitude. It’s proper alpine hiking — you’ll earn the views and maybe catch sunrise from a tiny terrace with a coffee cup.
