    "4 Tage für Jedermann" by Grindelwaldsports, the guide was Martin Schläppi. The hike itself was not very difficult. It remains glacier terrain however, so the right knowledge (or guide) and equipment is necessary.

    The first and last parts are through swiss trails, therefore easy. Once you start climbing up, it becomes really step and there is no trail marked on the ground. No technically difficult but you should be very fit.

    Outstanding climbing up to the 3. grade. Can be done solo. There are several chances to get down toward the west, scrambling down to the glacier like I did. Great viefs.

    The Allalinhorn is one of the easiest and most accessible 4000s of the Alps, but not to forget it’s a glacier hike. Probably because we did it at the end of the summer season there were more crevasses open than when I di...
