The views were so beautiful! Took many photos! A great place to view the mountaintops. Apparently, the hike starts there, but we didn’t do the hike as it was raining.Full review by quokka_26

Wow!!! Views that money can’t buy. Just stunning. To get to see the Eiger and Jungfrau. Words can’t describe the scenery. Only negative is that it costs an absolute fortune to catch the train up and…Full review by NicholasT342

Enjoying the beauty of Kleine Scheidegg and wondering what else you can do to take in the scenic views of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau mountains? Take a short jaunt down to the Wengernalp train sta…Full review by Swiss_nomad77
We will be in the Kleine Scheidegg area the nights of October 9-11, 2017. We know we want to do the Wengen to Grindelwald Grund hike as well as second hike in the area. Two questions: recommendations for another hike of about 15-20 km. And would you recommend Lauterbrunnen or another town as a play to stay? Many thanks!
A:
no, I wouldn't recommend Lauterbrunnen in October, it's a shaded valley with very limited options for evening. You say 'the hike' from Wengen to Grindelwald Grund - which one …
no, I wouldn't recommend Lauterbrunnen in October, it's a shaded valley with very limited options for evening. You say 'the hike' from Wengen to Grindelwald Grund - which one would this be, there are numerous options? Try jungfrau.ch and look at hiking, it gives just so many options to choose from.
We will be in Interlarken on October 6 & 7, 2017. We would like to do a high altitude trip from there. There appears to be two options: Kleine Scheidgg or the Schilthorn. My questions are: Does one have better views than the other? Is it easier to get one rather than the other from Interlaken? Is one less expensive to travel to than the other? As we are 68 & 70 are there any discounts for “seniors”. Any recommendations would be helpful.

They are different but both lovely. For both options you would need to take the train to lauterbrunnen. From there, to get to Klein scheidegg you would take a cogwheel train via …
They are different but both lovely. For both options you would need to take the train to lauterbrunnen. From there, to get to Klein scheidegg you would take a cogwheel train via wengen, which is a great stop in and of itself. If you want to get a little higher you can take one more train (the same one that goes to "top of Europe") but get off at Eigergletscher which is 7600 feet elevation at the bottom of the glacier. The train round trip was around $50 USD approximate if you get off at eigergletscher. There is a lovely walk from eigersgletcher to Klein scheidegg that is a spectacular gentle down hill route. You would also go to lauterbrunnen to get to the schilthorn but would take a bus to the cable car a few miles from the train. Schilthorn require 5 cable car transfers which are standing room only but fairly easy as well. One of the stops is in Murren which is a fairy book Swiss town. The views are amazing from the schilthorn with snow capped peaks in all directions and cost round trip is about $110US. Personally, I enjoyed Klein scheidegg more than schilthorn but both are wonderful.
Hi, I am planning to travel to this place in July'17 with my 22 months old daughter. Will this place be okay for her (altitude, weather)? Will there be snow?
A:
Hi there may not be snow there in July but your daughter will be ok. You can always email the tourist information office in Interlaken if you have any concerns. Hope this helps.

Staff on site might, but we received terrible advice from the online team before arriving in Switzerland that effectively cost us an extra £75 on a 4 day ski holiday. Don't trust any advice that they provide. As they refused to refund the difference when one of their on site staff pointed out the door in the advice that they'd given.
