By number of runs
YesPistes reach Grindelwald Grund from Kleine Scheidegg/Männlichen (21 Kleine Scheidegg–Grindelwald Grund, 22 Arven–Brandegg) and from First (21 Bort–Mühlebach); the lowest valley-run stretches (via Aspen, Brandegg, Stepfi, Kirche) are listed separately and open only with enough snow at ~1000 m.
None of our tags fit Grindelwald yet: see Who it suits below for each level.
Gentle green and blue runs, lifts made for learners (magic carpets, rope tows), and an area that isn't mostly steep.
Lots of blue and red runs to explore, and enough vertical for long runs.
Black runs, marked freeride routes and a big vertical.
Scores out of 100, from the runs and lifts on our piste map across the linked ski area, and the resort's vertical. Some resorts, especially smaller ones in Türkiye, are less completely mapped, so their beginner areas and learner lifts may be missing. Swiss and Austrian resorts have no green runs: beginners learn on blues there.
Shady Morning / afternoon sun
Loading runs and lifts… the first load can take ~30 s.
You can follow the conditions: shady north-facing runs for the best snow, sunny south-facing ones for warmth and views.
Follow the sun: east-facing runs (21%) get the morning sun, west-facing ones (5%) the afternoon sun.
How high the runs are · average 1,780 m · 33% at 2,000 m or higher
Higher runs keep their snow; the lower ones can get thin early and late in the season.
