Full-Day E-Bike Tour in Griesalp UNESCO Alpine Valley

Griesalp UNESCO alpine valley E-bike tour

Overview

Discover the Griesalp UNESCO alpine valley E-bike tour, an 8-hour guided ride from the Interlaken area into the serene Kiental valley in the Jungfrau Region. This moderate e-bike adventure combines dramatic waterfalls, the unique Tschingelsee, and a thrilling climb on Europe’s steepest public postbus road, all in a peaceful UNESCO-listed landscape.

🗺️ What to Expect

Your day starts with pick-up in the Interlaken area, then a meet-and-greet with your guide to choose the right e-bike and helmet. After transport to Kiental and a short training session, you ride into a quiet alpine world, following the Kiene river through meadows and mountain forests.

You reach the remarkable Tschingelsee, formed in 1972 after a major storm reshaped the valley. It feels like a wide river delta framed by peaks such as Ärmighorn and Aabeberg, and complemented by the scenic waterfalls of Gwildibachfall and Dündenfall. From there, the route climbs the famous postbus road to Griesalp with gradients up to 28 percent, made enjoyable with e-bike support and photo stops along the way.

In Griesalp, you can choose a cosy lunch at the Golderli mountain restaurant or opt for a relaxed picnic in nature. After the break, you continue deeper into the glacial valley with panoramic views toward 3,000-plus meter peaks like Blüemlisalp, plus a stop to taste authentic alpine cheese from local mountain farmers. The return follows the same road, typical for high mountain valleys, but reveals fresh perspectives and details you may have missed on the ascent.

This small-group experience is tailored to the group’s energy, with the pace always set to keep everyone comfortable. If the group is active and eager, the guide can extend the route to explore more trails.
