FollowUp early today for a trip to Grindelwald. We get the cable car from Wengen to Mannlichen, then ski down to the outskirts of Grindelwald where we get a bus. This takes us into the village and we get a gondola up to First, which is Grindelwald’s ski area.
After a coffee and some apple cake we have ski around the area. It’s quite small, but it does have one classic run, a route called Stepfi. This is a miles-long romp down through the trees.
Stepfi eventually leads to the Hotel Wetterhorn, named after the mountain which dominates the area. We have rosti and fried eggs for lunch while we wait for the bus.
The Wetterhorn.
Back in Wengen the weather is changing – it’s getting windy and colder. Some of the locals are talking about snow over the next few days.
