Männlichen

Winter

Ski and Snowboard

Männlichen slopes offer to skiers and snowboarders a remarkable range of runs with the striking silhouettes of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau. Modern transport facilities and superb pistes promise many happy hours of snow fun. The Männlichen ski area links up with the facilities of Kleine Scheidegg and Wengen.

Winter Hiking

Winter walking lets you take the time to admire the stunning snowscape, to gaze at the glorious white giants and enjoy winter sunshine. A short but rewarding uphill walk leads from the summit station to the Männlichen peak. Another easy, well-prepared path runs from Männlichen station down to Holenstein middle station. Walking time is about 1 hour. From here you can either hike down to Grindelwald or take the aerial gondola. A wonderful winter-walking path leads from Männlichen to Kleine Scheidegg. The 2-hours walk crosses the nature reserve of Arvengarten with its beautiful old mountain stone pines. Kleine Scheidegg is then reached by a 30-minutes hike – or by an easy ride on the Arven chairlift.

Snow Bar

It’s said that Männlichen offers the most beautiful views of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau. Enjoy these perfect Alpine proportions while sipping a drink at the Spycher Bar in front of the Männlichen Mountain Guest House. Deckchairs are available for those who like to bask in the sun.

Summer

Hiking

Breathe in the fresh Alpine air from the Eiger North Wall and enjoy the aura of the Jungfrau. Hiking is by far the best way to discover the magic of our mountain world. Männlichen has a host of hikes to suit all tastes - whether you prefer short or long, wild, tame or tough! And all are equally impressive. Some paths like the alpine road between Männlichen and Holenstein are suitable for wheelchairs.

Mountain Biking

Grindelwald’s surroundings are marvellous for mountain bike tours. One route to remember leads from Grindelwald Grund up to Männlichen. You pedal up small alp roads to Holenstein either directly or via Brandegg and then along an unsurfaced track. Many shady spots en route are perfect for a well-deserved pit stop. But the best is yet to come: The swift downhill run to Grindelwald! A shorter tour leads from Grindelwald Grund via Holenstein to Brandegg and back down to Grindelwald.
Please note: Transport of mountain bikes or similar equipment is not provided by either Grindelwald-Männlichen Gondola or Wengen-Männlichen Aerial Cableways.

Helicopter Flights

Helicopter in front of the Eiger north face

Treat yourself to high-flying fun at Männlichen. During the winter season you can board a helicopter of Berner Oberländer Helikopter AG at the airfield at Männlichen and soar away for a breathtaking bird’s eye view of mountains and glaciers. The fantastic round flight opens up spectacular perspectives, eye to eye with the Eiger North Wall. Heli-skiing from Männlichen is available as well.

Aeroplane Flights

In winter you can also take off in a light aircraft from the runway near the Männlichen Mountain Guest House. Soar the skies with a Piper! The round flights have been a highlight on Männlichen since 1958. If weather conditions allow there are daily flights during winter season. Booking on the spot.
