    Ski information

    Beginners

    There are nursery slopes in Grindelwald and just above the resort, including the new blue piste at Oberjoch, and a 'slow speed zone'. Quick progress will be made with lessons from the excellent English speaking Ski Schools.

    Intermediates

    The full area Jungfrau Top Ski Region ski pass covers 213kms of pistes, providing almost unlimited scope for intermediates on a range of relaxing runs or more testing routes down the Kleine Scheidegg mountain. Highlights include the 8km run from Oberjoch down to Grindelwald and the powder slopes from the Eigergletscher to Wengernalp.

    Advanced

    Experts can try the famous Lauberhorn World Cup downhill piste, or the fearsome Black Rock run which starts at the base of the Eiger. If you can cope with any more then there is the famous black, almost vertical 'Kanonenrohr' in Mürren.
