Self Guided: Via Alpina

Looking to experience the very best of the Via Alpina? You’re in the right place. The Bernese Oberland section takes you through some of Switzerland’s most iconic alpine landscapes. We offer two self-guided itineraries to suit your timeframe and hiking style.

The 9-Day Bernese Oberland Traverse is perfect for hikers seeking a full alpine adventure—crossing high alpine passes such as Sefinenfurgge, Hohruhli, and Bunderchrinde, visiting all the highlights, exploring charming Swiss villages and valleys, and soaking in the incredible scenery over nine epic days.

Prefer a shorter, more relaxed journey? Our 5-Day Bernese Oberland Highlights itinerary focuses on the region’s must-see spots—from the famous Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau peaks and the dramatic Lauterbrunnen Valley to picturesque villages like Wengen and Mürren along scenic trails.
