    This beginner trail leads from the village towards the Glacier Gorge. On hilly terrain, it continues with an ascent to the Marble Quarry before the route returns to the starting point. The trail, with 9.4 kilometers and 395 meters of elevation gain, is a great evening route or ideal for a shorter training session. Caution is advised during heavy rainfall: streams may overflow.

    Public transport

    Public-transport-friendly

    Thanks to its central location in Europe, Switzerland is served by international trains from over 12 countries. Within Switzerland, intercity trains run directly from Basel and Lucerne to the Jungfrau Region. Travelers from Zurich change trains in Bern. Trains run every half hour.

    Grindelwald

    From Interlaken Ost station, we reach Grindelwald without changing trains via the Bernese Oberland Railway (BOB). Important: board the rear part of the train as it splits in Zweilütschinen. Those boarding at the front end up in Lauterbrunnen. The journey takes 30 minutes to Grindelwald Terminal (V-Bahn). Three minutes later, we arrive at the terminus in the village.

    Grindelwald has three stations (Terminal, Grund, and Village). The terminus (Village) is located in the center of Grindelwald.

    Directions

    The fastest route from Basel and Geneva to the Jungfrau Region runs via Bern. From Zurich, the route via Lucerne and the Brünig Pass is recommended. The pass is open year-round.

    From the south, access to the Jungfrau Region is via the Grimsel or Susten Pass. Both passes are only open in summer. Alternatively, the Simplon Pass with subsequent car transport through the Lötschberg Tunnel is an option.

    Grindelwald

    From Interlaken, we follow the main road to Zweilütschinen. Here, we turn left towards Grindelwald. The entire drive takes about 30 minutes and covers a partly winding route.

    Parking

    Grindelwald

    There are three public parking garages: Eiger+ parking garage (252 spaces), Sportzentrum parking garage (160 spaces), and the new Terminal Parking (1000 spaces) of the V-Bahn. Alternatively, the parking lot in Grindelwald Grund can be used.
