Some of the finest skiing in the world happens to be parked upon the hills that lie high above the snug little Interlaken town. Interlaken’s prime location offers access to the famed Jungfrau Top Ski Region of Switzerland, which includes the resorts of Grindelwald, Mürren, and Wengen. The Junfrau region provides 213 kilometers (113 miles) of downhill trails accessed by 45 cable cars and lifts. There are three main skiing areas within the region: the Mürren-Schilthorn, the Kleine-Scheidegg-Männlichen, and the Grindelwald-First area.

There are a few resort towns that are a must for any ski or snowboard lover. The first ski resort on the agenda is Grindelwald which is tucked up away in the Swiss Alps. People who are looking for a more laid back and slow paced ski resort should look no further. Mount Grindelwald is a picture perfect ski range with some of the finest scenery in the world!
