The 10 Best Outdoor Activities in Grindelwald, Canton of Bern

May 31, 2021 Diedre Savory

Grindelwald is postcard-perfect, a charming example of a Swiss ski resort. There are slopes for all experience levels, plus plenty of snowy activities for those who don’t ski, such as sledding, hiking or snowshoeing. Not feeling particularly active? Just cozy up by crackling fire and enjoy the merry atmosphere. After a long day, nothing’s better than lingering over a pot of Swiss fondue and a glass of crisp wine as you plan the next day’s adventures.

Maennlichen Romantic Trail

Reviewed By yns_10 - Sydney, Australia

The wide, well maintained panorama trail from Männlichen to Kleine Scheidegg with a gentle descent most of the way. Only the part by the Tschuggen flank has a guard rail. We walked early October and the trail had only a section (mainly in the shade) that was icy and tricky to manoeuvre as it was one of the few uphill sections. The views of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau are simple breathtaking.

Altitude Ski & Snowboard School

Reviewed By NMG24 - London, United Kingdom

We recently had two private half day lessons with Mike and could not recommend him enough. We are intermediate skiers and were looking to improve our skiing technique, particularly in relation to carving. Mike is very patient and very knowledgeable, and he gave us a lot of good tips to improve our skiing technique. It was very easy to book lessons, we booked through the altitude desk in the Bernet Sports shop in Grindelwald.

Summer Sledding Mannlichen Enjoy +6 km exciting and safe sledding fun. Ride the unique Summer Gemel sled down Mount Mannlichen. Zoom past smooth slopes and green meadows full of wild flowers and fluttering butterflies. Feel alive and free amid one the most amazing alpine scenery. All it takes are solid shoes and fitted outdoor cloths. Everything else is taken care of. Due to the construction of the new cable car on the mount Mannlichen (2019) we are not running this summer. But we'll be opening up again in May 2020 with a refurbished race track - Yeah! See you then again. P.S. If you want to get the T-Shirt, Cap or Badge, you can still do so on www.summergemel.ch The Summer Gemel Pit Crew
