Grindelwald / Other information
However keen you are on skiing, don’t miss the essential day out (any blue-sky day will do) for the ride to the Jungfraujoch. The train climbs through a tunnel in the Eiger to the highest station in Europe, on the Jungfraujoch at 3454m. There’s a restaurant and café at the top, but it’s the fantastic views over Europe’s biggest glacier, the Aletsch that you go for, as well as the chance to brush up on your Japanese.
Additionally, the Jungfrau region’s dedicated walking and sledging lift pass should be a hint: Grindelwald has the longest sledge run in Europe, a 15km route from the Falhorn above First which involves a 2-2.5hr walk up hill. There’s also an 8km lift served run and a total of 8 toboggan runs giving over 50km of slopes of different grades; there can be as many as 1200 sledgers a day. You can hire sledges at departure points and also get evening passes. Over 80km of walking paths put the resort in a league of its own for non-skiers. 50km are on First where you can also find some good out of the way mountain restaurants.
