Kleine Scheidegg is situated at the foot of the world-famous Eiger North Face in the Bern Region of Switzerland. This beautiful winter trail in Grindelwald is for both sledding and hiking, descending the mountain below the impressive Eiger peak.
Since this mild sledding route is not too steep or dangerous, it’s a good choice for beginners and families. Plus it’s accessed by a cogwheel mountain train, not a gondola, so good for those who don’t like heights.
