What a fantastic video you made. Could you share your view on safety/ mobile signal? I saw a few points near the passes that looked pretty tough and if you have an accident (even breaking a leg) what happens next? It did not seem like a crowded route.
It was some time ago, so I do not recall phone signal. I generally suggest taking something like a Garmin in-reach, or even the newest version of the iPhone which allows you to send satellite SOS messages. Overall, whilst the mountains are big, the infrastructure is significant, and during summer you will see plenty of people around.
Great film, our favourite part of Switzerland. We are not fit enough to hike like you, but we still appreciate the scenery and do more gentle strolling!
It's so unbelievablely beautiful it hits my soul so hard I can't help but wheep over its utter magnificence, thank you for the privilege to experience this with you
Nice video and good job! One question, was the trail clearly marked? I'm thinking of hiking there this summer and bring along my tent. Totally looking forward!!! >_
Beautiful video! We did a part of the Alpine pass route from Engelberg to Lauterbrunnen and loved it. Made a video from it as well (; Would love to do some other parts of the Alpine pass route in the future
The next week I'm going to Switzerland, we are planning to sleep in the tent to, but I have read on internet that it's not allow, do you sleep on the tent all the days? What a beautiful views ^^
Spetacular Video, thak you so much for it! I did 2 out of the 4 sections with some friends and it is brutal, but jaw dropping all the way. The video, as awesome as it is dont do the real thing justice. To anyone planning it, its possible to do this without camping as well.. there are accomodations in al of the villages.
Hi James! Appreciate this video as my husband and I are looking to do a similar route this fall (late sept/early oct) in Switzerland (hoping for no extreme snow...). I see you're in New Zealand now, or more recently. We've hiked all over New Zealand (Milford track, Avalanche peak, Routebourn, Kepler, Abel Tasman) I'm wondering how this section of the Via Alpina compares in beauty and also in difficulty (similar, more difficult, less difficult?) Thank you for any insight, really enjoyed checking out this video.
Hey Jen. You'll be sweet. Good well marked trails, nothing technical - just like great walks. The key difference (dependant on if you chilled on the nz great walks and did short days) are the potentially long days from valley to Valley. One day particularly from lauterbrunnen over to griesalp was a pretty big day as I remember. We did probably 10/12 hrs and we are fairly fit. The pass on that one was steep, in bad weather you'd be slow. but well marked and roped to help. You could make days shorter though by staying in huts or other accomodation.
I am planning to do it during August for my part. I think the weather would be much better than in September or June :) If you want to discuss about this trip feel free to contact me ! I am looking for hiking's partners ! ;)
Hi there! Really beautiful video! I love everything about it. I'm doing the same route with my mom in a month - would you say we could go away with trailrunners? Or are hiking boots recommended? Oh and may I ask about if you used any luggage transportation services? Thank you SO much and I'm in love with your content please keep up the great work!
Hi James, I'm planning to do this hike in early July with my fiancé . I'm thinking of doing the route in reverse, Adelboden to Grindelwald. Few questions: 1. Did you see hikers doing this route(reverse of the way you went)? 2. What resources online did you use to plan the hike? I'm currently using the via-alpina.org website and doing google searches for additional information. 3. Do you have any tips or additional information to share? We're planning on packing light and staying in hotels or hostels in the villages after each stage of the hike. Thanks for making this video. I had planned the trip to the junfrau region and was just going to stay in Wengen/Murren/Gridelwald and do day hikes, but your video has inspired me to plan a through hike.
You will love it! It was beautiful. Definitely people in both directions. Particularly Adelboden to Grindelwald - it's quite busy. GPX download from that website to our watches. We googled local campsites. Note, some only spoke local language / German/French. no English. - we camped and had no problem. If you stay at accomodation it will be a breeze. We envied hikers with these small packs on some days :) Have fun and enjoy it, beautiful place.
Hi, every information you need you will find on: www.schweizmobil.ch/en/hiking-in-switzerland/routes/route-01.html. The part between Adelboden and Grindelwald is amazing and of course very touristic. So there are many options for restaurants, supermarkets and accomodation. I doesn`t matter in which direction you walk the trail. I live in switzerland and i walk the trail from Vaduz to Adelboden (and some of the stages also two or three times) and plan to finish the trail this year from Adelboden to Montreux. Here some impressions: www.flickr.com/photos/westbild/albums/72157710128006786 Andreas
Switzerland is by far one of the best places in the world to hike. The hiking culture, hiking infrastructure, and views make it phenomenal
Come to the world's 8000 m plus peaks in Pakistan.

A job well done indeed James - that was fabulous and awe inspiring. They say awe is good for us....aaah without doubt. Good going. Mark
Cheers Mark, agreed

Thank you so much. I agree it is a very beautiful hike, and very lucky to have been able to do it! One day I hope you do more of the trail 😀
hi James
thank you for your video and professional way in editing
Thank you! Appreciate it
Wonderful
Amazing video! Could you share more details (route (map), distances (km) and hiking times (h)) of this trail you did? Also where you camped?
Did you guys just wild camp wherever you could find a spot? The video doesn't show your camp sites :) !

Ps - in beauty it's unreal. we did a lot of research and are confident we did one of the most picturesque sections of it.
Where did you camped in Kandersteg? It is now forbiden to wild camped out there? right?
this was beautiful! what time of the year did you both go? I'll be heading to Grindelwald in July!
Hey does any one have any information about this hike? Distance, difficulty, where can you stay and stuff like that?
What time of the year did you do this? I'm planning to do the whole route this coming summer.
I am planning to do it during August for my part. I think the weather would be much better than in September or June :)
If you want to discuss about this trip feel free to contact me ! I am looking for hiking's partners ! ;)
I researched this and to do the whole lot was expensive(It's Switzerland). Now I'm going to Austria.
