First to Schynige Platte – Gondola/train schedules
-
We are staying in Wengen September 2-6. One day we want to hike from First to Schynige Platte. I understand it is about 8.3 miles (15 km) and we need to allow 6 hours for the hike. We are planning to ride the series of gondolas to First and the cog train from Schynige Platte to Wilderswil. Do you know the hours of operation in September for the gondolas and Schynige Platte train? We would like to start as early as possible and make sure we finish in time before the last train down from Schynige Platte.
Also is going from First to Schynige Platte easier or the reverse from Schynige Platte to First? Last allowing 6 hours for 8.3 mile hike is about a 1.4 MPH pace (fairly slow). Is this because of the steep climb to Faulhorn ?
