Description
The picturesque scenery of the Bernese Alps is the perfect setting for your next via ferrata adventure. The great rocks that build the peaks in the area, are enough to tempt anyone to climb them.
That is why I suggest you to try this exciting steel protected climbing route, also known as via ferrata. Various 1-day climbing tours in Gstaad, Grindelwald, Engelberg, and others.
Then, last but not least , the totally impressive Daubenhorn (2942 m), which has the longest via ferrata in Switzerland!
That alone should be enough to attract the adventurous climbers, but there is more. You will have the chance to test your limits knowing you are safe and guided by a professional. We could climb the superb Eiger-Rotstock, at 2663m, with a beautiful descent over the west face of the Eiger mountain or Kandersteg, known as one of the most beautiful and spectacular via ferratas of Switzerland.
This experience is designed for those with prior experience in climbing in high and exposed situations, and a good physical condition.
If you think you are up for a new challenge, you might want to try this. You can book it right now.

Mountain Guide
I grew up in the mountains and have always loved being up there. I always knew I wanted to become a mountain guide and make a living out of this life-long passion. I've bee a certified mountain guide since 1989 and love showing my friends and clients what I think is the best in life.
I'm based in Frutigen, in the Bernese Oberland. During the summer, I mainly guide rock climbing here, in other parts of Switzerland (Wallis, Grisons...) and in some amazing spots, including southern France. During the winter and spring, I spend most of my time on my skis, in the Swiss Alps but also in Piemont, Austria, Arlberg...where I love to take my clients.

I had a great day out with Albrecht. He was easily able to assess my ability and accommodate this by selecting a suitable climb. Throughout the climb he was professional and knowledgeable and provided helpful hints and tips. He was also friendly and approachable. I would highly recommend Albrecht as a guide and a climbing partner.
