I'll be in Wengen for about a week starting late tomorrow afternoon. The weather is not looking so great for my time there and the walk I really wanted to do (Mannlichen to Kleine Scheidegg) is closed. So I'm trying to figure out what easy walks I want to do when the weather is okay enough to do them. I'm not the greatest with heights, so by "easy" I mean no drop-offs and long, steep downhill sections. I can manage steep-ish uphill walks just fine, but if I have to go down the way I came up? NOPE! I walked from Rigi Kulm to Rigi Kaltbad today and there were a couple sections that were just too steep on the downhill for me to be comfortable. I made it though. I think? :-)
My first order of business is getting tomorrow settled. I'd like to do a walk (or two?) that begins and ends in Wengen. I won't be able to do the walk until about 5 PM or 6 PM, so it'd have to be something that doesn't take too long as I want to be done before it gets dark. I read about the Monchblick and Staubbachbankli walks. Would either of those be a good choice for me? Or is there some better easy walk?
For other days, I'm also interested in Grutschalp to Murren to Gimmelwald and First to Bachalpsee. Would anyone here who is familiar with those walks say they're "easy" by my definition?
I'm also planning to wander around the Lauterbrunnen area, which would include Trummelbach Falls.
Which easy walks would you prioritize? I'm going to remain hopeful that Mannlichen to KS opens up, but I'll try to make the best of my time if it doesn't.
Thank you!
