Day oneApproach and climb to Hut
Like the Dwarves of Moria, the Swiss have carved an incredible network of tunnels deep within the Wengen Alps. Today we’ll journey through these frozen giants aboard one of Switzerland’s world-renowned mountain railways, traveling beneath towering peaks and ancient glaciers. Much like the dwarves of legend, Swiss craftsmanship, engineering, and mountain tradition are celebrated across the world.

Day TwoScale the Mittellegi Ridge
Leaving the safety of the hut behind, we’ll venture onto the exposed and dramatic ridgeline of the Mittellegi Ridge. Along the way, we’ll pass remnants of old and new hardware left behind by generations of climbers who have tested themselves on this legendary route. After reaching the summit of the Eiger, we’ll begin the long descent down the South Ridge, crossing two glaciers before spending one final night at the Mönchsjoch Hut.
