It was a very seamless process from getting tickets to getting to the activities. The views were breathtaking and spectacular. Highly recommend!!

If you're an adventure-seeker at heart and don't mind dizzying heights, the First Cliff Walk summit trail might be just the thing for you. How do you get there, you ask? This cable car takes you to the top of Mt. First, showing you the stunning landscapes of Bernese Oberland on your way up.

"First "is a popular hiking area and a minor summit, named for being the starting point for many trails. Once at the summit, challenge yourself to First Cliff Walk - a rope trail with a 40-meter suspension bridge. You'll be surrounded by the fantastic views of the Alps, Mt. First's cliffside, and Switzerland's towering mountains.

When you've had enough and want to head back home, take the cable car back to your starting point with delicious mountain views of Switzerland enveloping you.
