Gentle ascent along the Lütschine to Zweilütschinen. From there, a slightly steeper path leads over meadows and through charming, small villages to Grindelwald.

The route leads from Interlaken West station via the Rugen to Wilderswil and from there over a wooden bridge up to Gsteigwiler. From there you ride on a natural road through beautiful flower meadows along the Lütschine upstream towards Zweilütschinen. At the confluence of the white and black Lütschine you turn left. The path constantly winds with a gentle ascent through the beautiful natural landscape, past flower-decorated wooden houses to Stalden. The steepest section now follows up to Burglauenen. Once at the top, take a break and taste the fresh spring water bubbling from the fountain. After crossing the railway line, follow a field path again towards Schwendi to Grindelwald Grund. In the flat valley floor you ride through an alder forest to the famous glacier gorge. Then continue into the village center of Grindelwald up to the station.
