Great resort! Easy access with lifts and trains and ski pass covers a wee trip to Interlaken. Pistes were quiet and well groomed. Offpiste is expansive and good fun! If you like a terrain park, Murren and Grindelwald First are for you!

Boring skiing, not well connected between Grindelwald and Murren. The only good thing about this place is the amazing views of Eiger and Jungrau.

Old school resort, with traditional elderly British clientele - not hip, banging apres. Wengen is tiniest resort Ive visited, only a few hotels, and a small village centre to explore - but very charming! Falken hotel is amazing - in an old, traditional way, not fancy and shiny new. Skiing extensive and varied. Wide, fast cruising pistes and challenging stuff too. Lifts/infrastructure means lots of transferring from lifts, trains, funiculars, etc. Connected, but not simple. Lovely ️

This is a magical place. You get the full Swiss experience here. The ski conditions were fantastic - plenty of snow, and plenty of space to make it feel safe for everyone. Very good variety of terrain. Plenty of food options on the mountain, and when you get down at the end of the day, you feel like you're in a winter wonderland. Can't wait to go back!

I went skiing in Grindelwald when I was studying abroad, and all my friends that decided to do other expositions were jealous. The views were incredible! The lifts were very efficient, and the restaurant up top was pretty decent for being on top of a mountain!

I have been skiing multiple times in this region. I will say that the easy (blue) runs can still be quite challenging, but there is such a variety of runs at this resort and I love coming back year after year. I ski and my partner boards and there are a good number of runs we can do together and have fun on. There is also a lot you can do on your ski pass in this region which isn't skiing, like going to First and using the zip line and glider over there.

A great place to stay woth family. Epic views of the Eiger and equally epic surrounding mountains. Train access to ski area makes it easily accessible for beginners or non-skiers. Some of the lifts have been upgraded to a high quality. We skied some magical runs through trees in deep powder, almost to ourselves. Rarely queue for a lift.

a great area with a high amount of Kms included in the pass. modern fast gondolas are available. not so much off piste or forest trails but nice pistes. In Switzerland so everything is quite expensive (80 per day ski pass)

Wengen is a superb area to ski for beginners and intermediates, with plenty to entertain advance skiers also. The unpisted, but patrolled, 'downhill' runs were particularly enjoyable after recent snowfall. The views are stunning, with the Eiger, Monch and Jungfrau mountains towering over the Eigergletscher station. The town is car free and has a few nice bars to stop off in on the way down the mountain and in the town. It was fairly quiet compared to other more apres-ski focused resorts, but this was fine for us. Getting to Wengen by train took roughly 4 hours and required a few changes. However, the rail system is very efficient and easy to navigate. Lovely views on the journey as the sun set in the evening.

Have skied here for many years. Lovely variety of slopes and a vast area to explore. Recent new lifts have made a big difference to the time taken to travel around the resort. Not so great for snowboarders. Transport to and around the resort is excellent. Trains go right up the mountain so there are a wide variety of places you could stay and still ski the whole area.

Amazing resort, had soemthing for everyone and is also connected to Murren, and you can go see the restaurant at Pitz Gloria (where they filmed On Her Majestys Secret Service). Lovely restaurants. Longest toboggans ride in the world. If you go join the DHO (Down Hill Only ) club- it gives you the option to meet up with a group and have a local guide for the day for a really good price. Also has teenager skiing groups with local guides (amazing for making friends and likeminded people- I gained a lot of confidence from it they got me comfortable off piste)

I have been to wengen for over 10 years, a resort that is mainly filled with groomed slopes but is perfect for larger groups due to the availability of skii in skii out chalets, there are many tourists but that may be due to the absolutely breathtaking views and the quaint village upon a cliff, the journey to get their is just as beautiful navigating Switzerland by train (very easy to do due to the amazing train systems).

Grindlewald is a charming resort full of tradition.. accommodation is plentiful, whether you want to ski door to door or whether you prefer the bustle of the resort centre itself. The ski pistes are fantastic for all abilities. There are chairlift and cable cars and the views are stupendous. There are treelined woodland runs and plenty of open sunny slopes. The ski schools are fantastic and it is easy to ski here as a mixed ability family or group as there is something for everyone. The views of the famous Eiger, Mönch and Jungrfrau, if you can find to pause for a moment and soak up the scenery, will leave you breathless
