experiences & stories

Alpinhotel Bort has been awarded the title of «Typically Swiss»!

First mountain cart
The centre of gravity is low, the wheels are wide apart and the hydraulic brakes ensure that you can keep your speed under control over long distances. This is also the case on the three-kilometre unpaved road from Schreckfeld to Bort: sledging fun on wheels, all summer long.

From spring to autumn, children will find a true play paradise right on our doorstep.

First Trottibike
A cross between a scooter and a bicycle, the Trottibike takes you from Bort to Grindelwald, past flower-filled meadows and farmhouses.
Fancy an adventure? The First Flyer takes you from First to Schreckfeld mid-station at 84 km/h on an 800-metre-long steel cable.

What would a holiday in Grindelwald be without a hike? From easy walks to high-altitude hikes, you'll find it all in the Jungfrau Region.
