Description
"Big Pintenfritz" is with 15km one of the longest toboggan runs in the world - a former Faulhornwirt gave his name to the toboggan run.
Starting point is First (2166m), which you reach by cable car from Grindelwald.
From there a marked winter hiking trail leads in about 2 hours to the Bachalpsee and on to the Faulhorn (2680m).
On the Fauhlorn there is a reward for the exertion: a unique panoramic view over many parts of Switzerland.
The toboggan run now leads from the Faulhorn via Bussalp over 15km down to Grindelwald.
In the Restaurant Bussalp it is worth taking a break and enjoying the sun and Swiss delicacies. Sledges, good shoes, clothing adapted to the weather, gloves, hat and helmet, food incl.
warm drink, emergency number.
