Ski Resort Guide: Grindelwald

Grindelwald: Intro

Ski Club rep in resort
Pretty village in a spectacular setting with mostly intermediate terrain.
Base (credit: Jungfrau Region)
Grindelwald is the epitome of 'Heidi country': a pretty village with a long mountaineering history that's dwarfed by the magnificent Eiger and Jungfrau. The main street buzzes year-round with international visitors here for the scenery, walking and tearooms as much as the skiing.
Pros
  • Breathtakingly beautiful scenery.
  • Gentle cruising slopes for intermediates.
  • Good for families.
  • Rich history to dip into.
Cons
  • Gondolas and trains are painfully slow and often overcrowded.
  • Snow cover on lower slopes is unreliable.
