Grindelwald is a place where mountaineers and visitors from all over the world meet – and what at first may appear a touch unfamiliar, soon turns out to have something in common: after all the “Japan Direttissima” is one of the most famous routes up the north face of the Eiger. Grindelwald, also known as the Eiger village or glacier village, is a lively, varied place which is perfect for active holidays
In Winter, the three regions Grindelwald-First, Kleine Scheidegg-Männlichen and Mürren-Schilthorn together offer a total of 213 km of ski runs ranging from fast to leisurely, and from six to twelve kilometres in length. A total of more than 40 percent of the ski runs are equipped with snow-making machines. In the Jungfrau Region however, non-skiers also get their money’s worth: 100 kilometres of winter footpaths enable you to explore the mountains on foot. Furthermore, with its countless toboggan runs, the region is a real paradise for tobogganing. Amongst them is the longest toboggan run in the Alps.
In Summer, 500 kilometres of footpaths, 160 km of mountain bike trails, cable cars and railways, theme paths, adventure sports, climbing and mountaineering areas, waterfalls, alpine lakes - all accompanied by the breathtaking panoramic views of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau. The 160 km of mountain bike trails in the Jungfrau Region do require a certain level of fitness - but thankfully there are always trains and cable cars which can take the strain out of many a climb. The view of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau is spectacular.
