Resort: Grindelwald, or the “glacier village” as it is known, is the largest and oldest resort in the Jungfrau region and one of the most attractive and popular tourist destinations in Switzerland. Like many of the best dual season resorts, the village itself is low (1,034m) but it has one thrilling difference - the 4,000m peaks of the Eiger and Jungfrau tower over the village and spill their glaciers almost into the village itself. The resort is approximately 2hrs drive from Zurich airport (151km) and 2hrs 45mins drive from Geneva airport (241km).
Winter: The network of cable cars and mountain railways serves a total of 213km of piste and gives the skiing a unique and romantic charm. Grindelwald shares a ski pass with Wengen which covers over 45 lifts. There are nursery slopes right beside the village and access to the ‘First’ and Männlichen ski areas are direct from the village. The nightlife is the most lively of the Jungfrau resorts.
Summer: Grindelwald is one of the most scenic resorts in Switzerland and is a must for Japanese tourists doing Europe. The resort is as busy in summer as it is in winter and is truly dual season and has wonderful walks, fishing, and climbing as well as the usual sports such as tennis.
