Itinerary description
The trail starts at the Grindelwald First cable car station.
It was to be an attempt to reach the summit of Schwarzhorn Peak, but as there was a lot of snow the trail markings were erased (they disappeared in the snow). As I was alone, I found it wiser not to continue. I no longer found the way to move on, so I turned around and finished this attempt. It is important to note that a good part of the route is made by "via ferrata" ...
I sincerely hope to return to this mountain in the summer, without snow, to complete the climb.

One of the bifurcations. At this point it was still possible to distinguish well the trail.
