Via Alpina 1

I really enjoyed the packing and training tips, count down to our trip, hotels and hostels booked and ease of payment. The Bear Trek is beautiful and well marked with stunning scenery every step of the way! The poor descriptions of the hiking days were what lost Bookatrekking a point. Day 2 "the walk up involves gentle hills and meadows" should read, walk up steep unshaded rocky trails... Day 3 sounds like it will be the hardest with mentions of "steep ascents" and "long set of steps" but Day 4 has no mention of the 22 sets of stairs up that felt like a stairway to hell. Why would that be left out?! After 4 days of hiking we were mentally and physically exhausted so we took the bus to Adelboden instead of the originally planned hike on Day 5. I wish Day 4 had been split into 2 days with an overnight at the Blüemlisalphütte; that would have made the hike up much more enjoyable and less rushed and we would have had more time to enjoy Lake Oeschinen too.

Absolutely the most incredible Trek with easy navigation and fabulous hotels and accommodations! The trip totally exceed my expectations and I loved every minute of it! Can’t wait to join another one!

Die Reise war sehr gut organisiert. Die Hotels waren sehr schön ausgesucht, teilweise sogar mit Schwimmbad. Leider hatte ich das vorher nicht gelesen und keine Badesachen dabei. Wir hatten immer richtig tolle Zimmer mit Blick auf die Berge und konnten nach einem anstrengenden Wandertag so besonders gut entspannen.

This was actually an amazing hike. Really incredible. Booking through Bookatrekking made it incredibly simple, the app, the gpx maps, the gear list are all invaluable information which really ensured we were prepared.

Een van de mooiste trekkingen die we al gedaan hebben!

From selecting a trek to the booking process the staff from Bookatrekking were very helpful and professional in dealing with our requests. The trek went very well and all bookings were in good order. The overnight accomodation was good and as per our expectations. We will definitely use Bookatrekking for our next trek

Die Strecken waren echt super, Unterkünfte in Ordnung. Leider waren Teile der Wege gesperrt, weshalb man teilweise lange oder gefährlichere Umwege nutzen musste. Hierfür wäre zumindest ein Hinewis hilfreich gewesen, um sich darauf einstellen zu können. Ansonsten war die Tour echt super, mit den Unterkünften lief der Kontakt, auch wenn man erst spät ankam sehr einfach!

The hiking trip Bear Trek was just wonderful. The Book a Trekking staff was helpful and friendly. We liked most of the lodging, except for two hostels (Lauterbrunnen and Griesalp). After a tough hike, it's not ideal to have to share a room with strangers, to not even have enough space to put your backpack on the floor (room could only fit the bed), pay for towels, have really bad beds and pillows, dirty bathrooms, etc. But all the other lodging was perfect though! Would recommend booking a hiking trip with Book a Trekking!

Het team van Bookatrekking.com is zeer vriendelijk, professioneel, denkt met je mee en is goed bereikbaar per telefoon, mail en Whatsapp. Hun aanbod van trektochten is ook flexibel en kan daar waar nodig aangepast worden.
