hi guys just wanted to say THANK YOU for this amazing, concise and informative video. much needed from someone trying to plan their first ever Switzerland trip and is feeling abit overwhelmed with information!!

[HappyTraveler]

I just came back from the Jungfrau region and Zermatt. Thanks to your videos and itineraries I felt super prepared and my trip was everything I could have wanted. These hikes were great! And even though you call them “easy” they definitely were not “lame”. Thank you!

[davidkelly]

Oh guys, you just keep on giving! Thank you for another informative vid.

[nirukshidavid]

I wanted to thank you for this video.. this really helped me to choose the best hike suited for me and my family 😊

[kennishimoto]

Did the Grindelwald hike to the lake today and everything is covered in snow. Quite a spectacular adventure still.

[cosminruseaa]

Amazing place. Went on easter weekend and your videos helped a lot.

[gretchenandrickfountain]

Not me obsessively watching your videos and trying to plan our June trip to include the best and most doable things. :) We are in Wengen for three nights.

[mountainlover]

What a great resource! Loved that you showed a topographical map along with your description of the trails and actual video so one can see the views.

[joeyemerace]

These videos are just in time for my trip to Brienz this summer! I think I’ll get your week guide as well to help with all those train times and technicalities ! Thanks guys

[nupursingh]

Thank you for another informative video. Very helpful for planning my upcoming visit to Switzerland. Question on the Northface hike, would you need hiking poles for it?

[AnnaBerger-dk]

This is so helpful, thank you! We can't wait to check out these hikes on our trip this summer. Do you have a recommendation for what boat cruise company to use on Lake Brienz?

[ManhwaInfinite]

subscribed!!! i’m in switzerland right now and this will help a lot 🤞🏽🙏🏽

[sawright]

Thanks for all the tips. You should put a cavity in the first hike though, to the alpine lake. It's only 10-15 minutes up hill if you're young 😅

[WereintheRockies]

Love! Can't wait to hike the one with the self service huts. (love the titles as well!)

[lhassozeeaye]

My wife and I will be traveling to Switzerland next week for our Honeymoon and I’ve been watching your videos every single day! I’m so happy you posted this video.❤ My wife and I plan on hiking Christmas Day somewhere in the Jungfrau region. We’re staying by Interlaken. Do you have any suggestions on which hike would be the best to spend Christmas Day?

[CambodiaNomadTips]

Been there many times. Wonderful place.

[ngyys]

Great videos guys! Just checking which of these will be open in mid to end Nov? Cheers!

[emsteam]

Great video! Very helpful! Your channel is one of my favorites! Are all these hikes open in late May?

[aerialrescuesolutions]

Another awesome video, thank you. Is the Top of Europe pass no more? The website shows it as still available, but will it still be available in September? Thank you, Jim

Jana, I would love to get your recommendations for hiking shoes. I’ve noticed your shoes often, and I have feet that are “less than” the best. Would love to know which shoes you recommend and where you typically get them.
