The Ski Club in Grindelwald ...
Grindelwald lies at the base of the Jungfrau ski region, with 155km of local slopes served by a fleet of increasingly modern lifts, affording access to terrain across two varied areas.
The main slopes are shared with the neighbouring resort of Wengen, and there is conveniently a separate area of sunny pistes on First. The resort also provides some of the best off-snow diversions of any in the Alps. A trip up to Jungfraujoch is a must, and, in addition, the resort boasts Europe’s longest sledging run and an extensive network of mountain walking trails.

Resort Activities
AdvancedPros and cons
- Fantastic scenery dominated the the Eiger’s North Face
- Large intermediate ski area
- Lots to do off the slopes, especially for tobogganing and winter walking
- Easy to get to using the train network
- Slow train links between areas, but new gondolas will dramatically improve this
- Most of the challenges for advanced skiers are off piste
- Village can be shady in the heart of winter
- Low-altitude resort runs can struggle for snow, but snowmaking has helped
On the Slopes
The major area of slopes is shared with Wengen and offers a mix of a few wooded runs and much more extensive open slopes – all served by fast lifts. The smaller First area is mainly above the treeline but offers sunny runs, great views and is also home to a top-class terrain park and ski cross course. Note that several areas are designated as skier-free wildlife reserves, where you may well spot chamois.

For Advanced/Expert & Off Piste
In the Resort
The central buildings are mainly in traditional chalet style, in keeping with the resort’s long mountaineering history. The village can feel very jolly at times, especially when events are going on in town or up on the slopes. Although the road through goes nowhere, traffic can sometimes be intrusive.
For Families
It’s not the most convenient place for families because of its spread-out nature. However, the sheer variety of off-slope activities make this a good bet for families not looking to spend their whole holidays on skis or on a snowboard. For the younger ones, Snowli Kids Clubs are based at both Bodmi (First) and at the top of Männlichen.
For Après
Tipirama – a wigwam at Kleine Scheidegg, sometimes with DJs and live bands – is a fun place immediately after skiing. There are various (mainly open air) bars to stop in on the way down to Grund. The liveliest are the Rancher on run 22, which attracts a young crowd, the Holzerbar on run 21 and the Aspen Hotel a little further down the hill.
In town, the terrace of the C&M Café und Mehr is good for coffee and cake. Later on, there’s live music in several bars and hotels, such as the Challibar in the Hotel Kreuz & Post, but it isn’t a place for bopping until dawn. The Espresso bar in the Spinne Hotel is lively and the Gepsi Bar in the Eiger is a favourite. Both the Mescalero in the Spinne and Plaza in the Sunstar are popular clubs.

Switzerland
Updated 01/04
Switzerland sits in the gap of good snowfall that is hitting the rest of the Alps this week, with some areas at the extreme East and West getting a few flurries to make up for it.
Areas around Zermatt and Verbier could get up to 10cm of snow from Tuesday afternoon through to midday Wednesday, mostly falling over higher ground as the freezing line hovers around 2,000m. Elsewhere, conditions remain dry and bright, but otherwise cool – the freezing line over the Grison Alps climbs from 500m over the course of the day to peak at 2,500m in Wednesday’s midday sun.
As the week continues, conditions across the region reach a confluence, with spring-like freeze-thaw conditions dominating. The freezing line will hover around 2,000m overnight, climbing to around 2,500m in the midday sun – this will put serious strain on lower slopes across the region as thaw-slush is not able to freeze overnight.
These conditions will continue through the coming weekend and into the new week.
