A Grindelwald 3 Day Itinerary - Print Itinerary 

We researched and followed a 3 day itinerary because that was the amount of time we allocated to Grindelwald. If you have additional time to spend in Grindelwald, you may still might find our itinerary useful as a starting point;

  • Day 1: Travel to Grindelwald, explore the town and shops and do a hike ( click here see our list of hikes below on this page).
  • Day 2: Visit First Mountain Grindelwald Switzerland;
     Take the gondola to the top and walk to the First Cliff Walk Tissot
     Ride the zipline ( First Flyer) or First Glider.
     Ride either a First Mountain Cart and hike down the mountain or take the First Mountain bike ride (aka Trottibike Scooters) all the way into the town of Grindelwald (warning - this is via a steep trail!).
  • Day 3: Visit Jungfraujoch;
     How to get to Jungfrau Top of Europe? Take the Jungfraubahn Train from Grindelwald to Kleine Scheidegg Railway Station and then board the cog train to Jungfraujoch. Or you can take the new Grindelwald Cable car called the Eiger Express (opened in 2020) which will get you to the cog train that takes you the final stretch to the Jungfraujoch-Top of Europe 45 minutes quicker than taking the Jungfraubahn Train from Grindelwald.
    You need reservations and can get them online here. Or you can get them the day before you go. We waited until we knew the weather was going to be good before we booked.

NOTE: If you plan on riding or hiking back to Grindelwald, then you only need a one way gondola ticket!
