Grindelwald
Ski instructor in Grindelwald
Grindelwald sits in a bowl at 1,034 metres with the north face of the Eiger rising 3,000 metres above it, which is not a view so much as a wall. The village is a serious mountaineering base and has been since the sport was invented, and the hiking and climbing here are correspondingly demanding.
In winter the ski area links across to Wengen and Mürren. New gondolas from the valley have cut the access time substantially, which has made half-day sessions genuinely practical from Interlaken or even Bern.
Why private beats group
A group lesson moves at the speed of its slowest member and spends half the morning waiting at the bottom of a lift. A private day is yours: if your problem is one thing — steeps, moguls, a stubborn inside ski — that is what the day is about. Most people who switch never go back.
Lift passes and equipment
Your lift pass is not included and you arrange it yourself, since most people already have one or a season pass. Bring your own skis if you have them. If you need rental, say so when you book and your instructor will point you at the right shop rather than the nearest one.

Common questions
What level do I need to be?
Any. Complete beginners are a normal booking, and so are strong skiers who want to move off-piste safely. Tell us honestly where you are in the notes — it is the single most useful thing you can write there.
Can my children and I share a lesson?
Yes, if you ski at broadly similar levels. If the gap is large, two separate lessons work far better than one compromised one.
What about off-piste?
Off-piste and touring are available with instructors qualified for it, and depend on conditions on the day. Say so when you book so we match you correctly — it is not something to decide on the chairlift.
