June 29, 2024,Schweiz (BE): von Grindelwald nach First, dann weiter zum Bachsee und hinab nach Bort

I would recommend taking the flower path from Bort to Bachsee and then walking to First. The route is nicer than my way up the mountain. You can then take the cable car down from First and save your knees :)

With the Firstbahn to the mountain station, an easy path then leads to the Bachalpsee. The descent to the middle station "Bort" is not a hiking trail but a mountain path. Good shoes, good sure-footedness are prerequisites (healthy knees are an advantage), because the last part to the middle station should not be underestimated.
