Summary: Especially Great for the First Time Visitor
Comment: I've been to Switzerland on 4 trips for a total of about 6
weeks, mainly in the Bernese Oberland. I have not yet found
a better book for the first time visitor to this area. Even
though I've been there several times I still find it
worthwhile. There are no specifics on hotels or restaurants,
just on sights. They choose 10 trips and 4 excursions, and I
can think of other choices but not better choices; most are my favorites. The trips are from a half day to one day, depending
on what variations you choose; the excursions require a full
day. There are also some other suggestions and information on
Swiss tourist offices and websites, which I would also recommend
that you email and/or visit when you are in the area. Basic information includes food & drink, transportation, etc.

Summary: A very good guide
Comment: We were in Switzerland this summer and I highly recommend this guide for anyone who will be in the Bernese Oberland area in Switzerland. It is very well written and the maps are very helpful. Wengen, a small swiss village 45 minutes from Interlaken is very beautiful and we could have easily missed that had it not been for this book.

Summary: An Invaluable Guide for the Bernese Oberland Traveler
Comment: I bought the Alspach's book on the Bernese Oberland when it was first published in 1992. This book has been invaluable to my family on our many trips to that area. Since we are there for at least two weeks, we have had the chance to follow almost all of the suggested hikes and excursions and have loved every one of them. I recently purchased their 2nd Edition and they have done a great job of updating their gem of a travel guide, adding many new maps, photographs and hikes.

The hike called the Eiger Trail is spectacular, a great addition. We did this hike last year and found it as rewarding as the Alspach's state. We are looking forward to the hike to Obersteinberg, as it suggests an overnight stay in a mountain hotel.

I highly recommend the 2nd Edition if you are lucky enough to be traveling to the Swiss Bernese Oberland.
