Overview: Grindelwald is a picturesque traditional mountain settlement at the foot of the Eiger mountain surrounded by spectacular alpine landscapes. Popular as both a summer and winter destination, it offers miles of slopes and hiking trails across the Alps, and for non-skiers there are a huge variety of winter activities, from tobogganing to groomed winter hiking tracks. For skiers there are three distinct areas to choose from, with slopes for beginners, intermediates and the challenges of the Eiger glacier for the experienced, as well as lift links to Wengen and Mürren, making this one of the best resorts from which to explore the Jungfrau region.
