2-day Snow Ridge Ascent of Fiescherhorn

Join our experienced guide on this exciting mountaineering trek to the summit of the Fiescherhorn!

We begin our adventure with a short hike either from Grindelwald or the Jungfraujoch train station to the Mönchsjoch Hut, where we will stay overnight.

The next day we will wake up early and head out over the Ewigschneefeld to the west ridge. Next, we climb over a section of steep ice followed by an exposed rock section before reaching the summit.

This is a classic route up the mountain that involves mostly trekking through glaciers and over snow to the summit.

From the top, we will have sublime views of the dramatic Eismeer and the Schreckhorn as well as many other of the Swiss Alps. We will then descend via the way we climbed up.

From the Mönchsjoch Hut, it will take about four to five hours to reach the summit and then another three to four hours to descend. Due to some of the difficulty of the climb, previous mountaineering experience is required.

So what are you waiting for? Book now for this exhilarating mountaineering adventure summiting the Fiescherhorn in the heart of the Swiss Alps.
