Thank you for making a longer video of Grindelwald! The sceneries and footages in this video are breathtaking! I like about Alps are so accessible with cable cars and trains. There are many beautiful mountains here in Washington State, but we really have to go into backcountry to experience the beauties. I've booked a flight to Switzerland, I'll explore Eiger area. Thank you for sharing, I enjoyed your comments and reactions.

[@ThePlanetD]

You are very welcome and thank you for watching. I am glad that we could help. Yes, the Alps are so easy to get around and to get up to the lookouts and attractions it is an easy gondola or train ride. Dave and I were just talking about how Switzerland did it all really well. They made travleing the Alps easy. I am excited for you to be visiting. Have a great time and thanks for the comment. We are heading to Washington State in April and are really excited to explore it too!

[@3vhellov]

Would the Eiger Trail be advisable (or any other hikes in general) to be done in November/December period?

[@chriggih]

as you are at a high altitude: no there may be a lot of snow and ice which would make this trail harder (and potentially dangerous) it may be posibble to do with snowshoes and other additional equipment🤷🏼‍♀️? these things you can rent in grindelwald and they can also give you advise on how doable this or other snowshoe-hikes are

Amazing video thanks for sharing . Just wondering , How much such a trip costs ? i know that Switzerland is pretty expensive .

It really depends. You can stay in hostels for a more reasonable price. The Jungfrau Travel Pass is $190 for a 3 day pass and includes top of Europe. Hotel prices vary from around $300 to $1000. The Romantik Hotel where we stayed is more on the $1000 range but the location is amazing and we had half board which included breakfast and dinner.

[@hannesolivier204]

My accommodation is about €50/night with Airbnb. The thing that I’ve seen gets expensive is food.
