Tucked amidst the gorgeous Bernese Alps in the Jungfrau Region of Switzerland, the alpine village of Grindelwald is best known for its excellent skiing opportunities in winter and hiking opportunities in summer. Visitors can board Switzerland's famous cog railroad (the highest in the world), which climbs high into the mountains for a truly magnificent ride and view. Grindelwald also serves as the starting point for visitors ascending the iconic north face of Eiger Mountain. Other activities include: gondola rides up to the minor summit on Schwarzhorn, where visitors can attempt the thrilling First Cliff Walk, and hiking the magnificent six-kilometre Eiger Trail. Take the chance to view the Bachalpsee, a remarkable alpine lake, and explore the deep Gletscherschlucht, an otherworldly glacier canyon.
