Not the first activity that comes to mind in spring, but probably the most exciting one at this time of year! Imagine having the canyon all to yourself and your friend - smaller groups, less waiting, more action. No gear, no experience, no equipment, and no transportation needed - everything is provided. All you have to do is meet us in Interlaken and bring a towel.

Flying over the Swiss Alps on the Grindelwald First Glider was one of the most thrilling adventures of my trip to Switzerland. The ride gives you panoramic views of the Jungfrau region, snow-capped mountains, and lush alpine valleys. It’s the perfect mix of adrenaline and scenery. If you’re looking for unique things to do in Grindelwald, this experience should be at the top of your Switzerland bucket list.
