Grindelwald: Männlichenbahn - Männlichen 2
Grindelwald straddles the Schwarze Lütschine in the Bernese Oberland, and its position beneath the Eiger and Wetterhorn has made it a long-established base for exploring the Jungfrau region. The settlement spreads through a glacial valley, while railways, cableways and mountain routes connect it with the surrounding high country. First, above the village, is a major access point for walking and mountain activities; the wider Jungfrau area is also one of Switzerland’s best-known ski regions. Traditional Bernese timber chalets remain part of Grindelwald’s built character, alongside the hotels and transport infrastructure serving an international mountain-resort town.

Grindelwald occupies a broad Alpine valley beside the Black Lütschine in the Bernese Oberland. The village sits beneath the Eiger, whose north face has made it a landmark of Alpine climbing; the Wetterhorn and the glaciers above the valley complete its high-mountain setting. Grindelwald is linked to Kleine Scheidegg, the pass below the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau, by mountain railways and lifts. From there, the Jungfrau Railway has carried passengers through the Eiger to Jungfraujoch since 1912. Alongside its international resort life, the community retains the pastures, cattle farming and timber-built houses of the Bernese Alps.

Built around the Aare River and routes across the Swiss Plateau, Bern grew into a canton connecting the federal capital with the Bernese Oberland. Its territory extends from Jura foothills and farmland through the Aare valley to the high Alps around the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau. The city of Bern, Switzerland’s federal capital, preserves an Old Town inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List, while Thun and Interlaken lead towards Lakes Thun and Brienz. Urban institutions, dairy farming and established alpine resorts give the canton a notably broad Swiss character.

Switzerland stretches from the Jura Mountains in the northwest to the Alps in the south, encompassing a central plateau of cities, farms and lakes. The Rhine rises in the Swiss Alps, while Lake Geneva forms part of the country’s southwestern border. Zürich, Geneva and Basel are major urban centres, yet mountain railways and passes remain central to how many regions are experienced. Four national languages—German, French, Italian and Romansh—reflect Switzerland’s distinct cantonal identities. The Matterhorn above Zermatt is among Europe’s most recognisable peaks, and the 1291 Federal Charter is closely associated with the country’s founding tradition.
