Date: Tuesday 4th August
Route: First to Bachalpsee Lake and back
Another deservedly popular walk, this gravel path leads from the cable car station at First, 1100 metres and a 30 minute ride above Grindelwald, to the exceptionally beautiful lake at Bachalpsee, which overlooks the Wetterhorn, Shreckhorn and Eiger summits, as well as glaciers that cannot be seen from the Eiger side of the valley.
With picture postcard views and suitably picturesque goats along the way, this is an easy hour and a half there and back - the path is not very exciting but the views are - and you can always go for a swim if you are feeling adventurous (although the shrieks of the adventurous suggest that the water may have a definite glacial chill).
