The impressive Panorama Bridge between Sigriswil and Aeschlen (Bernese Oberland/Switzerland) as seen in the massively popular K-Drama “Crash Landing On You”.
The bridge is one of the longest suspension bridges for pedestrians in the world at 340 metres. Walking on the bridge, you have a great view of Lake Thun as well as the mountain group Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau.
The ravine beneath the bridge is 182 metres deep. Be aware of that in case you have a severe fear of heights because on top of that the bridge is also a little shaky 😉.
If you are travelling by car, you should go up the Grimselpass in Switzerland. An exciting way through the mountains, which provides amazing views over the mountains and the valleys.
With our Hotel in Bern, the plan was to drive to Grindelwald to get the typical tourist view on the Eiger mountain, then travelling the Grimselpass to Italy and visit the Lake Maggiore.
The (old) Route
This was considered to be a full day trip with a lot of sights to visit and memories to make.
Due to a construction site at Grindelwald, which took away more than an hour, we sadly had to change our plans.
We had to scratch the visit to Italy and the Lake Maggiore from our list and went with an easier plan.
As mentioned before, we spend more time than expected on the way to the Grimselpass itself. Fortunately, we haven’t been in a hurry and did enjoy the “climb to the top” with several stops to enjoy the scenery.

Just a few cars have been on the pass, which means less traffic and less noise. One of the views we had, you can see below in our YouTube Video.
Travelling the Furkapass gives you fantastic views over the landscape
The view at the top – at about 2500 meters – is very rewarding with fantastic views over valleys, lakes, and mountains.
On Top there is the Hotel Restaurant “Alpenlodge Grimselpass” and the “Totensee” where people went for a swim. Bikers and Campers like the location as well to take a break and enjoy food and drinks with a fantastic view.

The descent from the top of the Grimselpass is on the Furkastreet, which leads to the famous Furkapass.
If you have the time, you can also take a turn in the village and go up the Furkapass.
Most People know the Furkapass from the James Bond movie Goldfinger. A street sign on the location of the scene also says “James Bond Strasse”, which I think is pretty cool 😎.
We can really recommend this tour through the Alps, and if you want to travel to Italy, this is a wonderful way to get there.
