Hiking the Swiss Alps...?

Hello,

I will be taking my first hike through the Swiss Alps in September and want to make the most of it! I will be flying in to Zurich then heading to ??? to hike. From the reading that I have done so far I am leaning towards taking a train from Zurich to Grindelwald and hiking from there. I would like to spend 4 nights/5 days hiking. After the hiking is done I want to head back to Zurich to spend a day/night there before continuing on with the rest of my trip. Do you have any recommendations for 4nights/5 days hiking in Swizterland's Alps? Any "must see" or "must do" things while in the Alps or Zurich?

Thanks in advance!!

Best hiking trip in the world is a tour of Les Dents du Midi in Valais. Book rooms in the cabins early because they do fill up. Once you've done that, Grindelwald will be, eh, not bad. 4 or 5 days is a nice way to do it.

Hello from Germany,
I would suggest, that you contact the tourist office of Grindelwald. They can send you information about hiking trips .
http://www.grindelwald.travel/en/navpage.cfm?category=HikeGT

If you are travelling alone, I would ask, if there are any organized hiking trips, as hiking alone in the alps me be dangerous.

Have a nice day
K.

This a great spot. Also check in Interlaken for a stay and you can hike to the Jungfrau, or just take the train to the top which has a descent restaurant there.
September is getting quite cold there, specially at night.
Have a good trip

There is always the Matterhorn, more of a climb than a hike.

Wow, I'm so jealous! I spent some time in Grindelwald in 1998, and I HIGHLY recommend an overnight stay in Gimmelwald, a tiny village nearby. It is up on a mountain so steep that cars can not drive up there (there are no roads)--you have to take a gondola! There is a great hostel up there (I can't remember the name, but you can't miss it--it's the only one), and an authentic Swiss restaurant. The views up there are second to none. Great hiking, too.

Have a blast!

take lots of money

beer is £4.50 upwards
restaurants and cafe prices are ridiculous
you could buy a train for the rail price.

added since the thumbs down .
I ve been there , landed at Geneva took the train to Sion £80 one way. rented a chalet in Nendaz £700, first day I paid 36 euros for a simple salad. Had to use my second bank account 5 days in.

Scenery was fantastic.
