Berghaus Alpiglen is a mountain inn and restaurant above Grindelwald at the foot of the Eiger.

Berghaus Alpiglen has a fantastic position looking out at Grindelwald, the Wetterhorn, and the Eiger looming high above.  The train from Grindelwald to Kleine Scheidegg makes a stop here.  Alpiglen mountain inn has 7 rooms and a couple small dorms, and staying here is always treat, quiet and peaceful.

Alpiglen is also a popular mountain restaurant.  It's at the bottom end of the Eiger trail, and is a great stopping point for hikers who have hiked down from Kleine Scheidegg or Eigergletscher.  Their specialty is "Käseschnitte", a local specialty of bread smothered with mustard, white wine and lots and lots of cheese.  But they have many dishes and drinks, both indoor and outdoor seating.  It's a great place to relax after a hike while you wait for the train to Grindelwald.
