Very disappointed with Grindelwald. It feels like a cheap tourist village but with exorbitant costs. Not value for money and not worth it. Full of non-skiing Asian tourists who clog up the lift systems for insta opportunities. If you manage to get on the mountain the skiing is ok but very crowded. People skiing far too fast on blue runs. Better options in Austria in my opinion and better value for money.
