Theres a very nice big indoor pool in the center of Grindelwald though I'm not sure what other facilities it might offer, plenty of restaurants in the village itself (mainly attached to hotels), Once upon a time I believe there was even a choclatier who did demonstrations a couple of times a day, but I was never there at the right time, resort itself is not huge with just one main line of shops going roughly from the railways station up the hill to the bottom station of the First Gondola, if you want somewhere to go to on a day with no snowsports, Interlaken just down the railway line offers a few different things to see and do

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

D G Orf, thanks for that if the legs get a bit shakey might venture into Interlaken.

Restaurant at Bort is excellent for a pit stop on your ski down from the First side.
Also, restaurant opposite Rugenbrau brewery just outside Interlaken is also well worth a visit though is a fifteen minute walk from either Wilderswil or Interlaken West.
Plenty of excellent places to get fed and watered all over

Apple fritters at the Brandegg Hut, on the railway line up to Kleine Scheidegg - lovely easy ski down to it.

I'd second the apple fritters, they are a must! Also the Schnitzel and Chips at Allmendhubel (top of the funicular from Murren) are huge. To be shared. Restaurant at the Hotel Oberland at Lauterbrunnen is also good for meals. Top of Mannlichen also good for lunch.
In case you didn't know, the train to Interlaken is included in your lift pass too.

DixieDean, I believe the train to Interlaken is only included in your lift pass if your lift pass is for the whole area (Sportpass Jungfrauregion). If it is only for Grindelwald Wengen (First, Kleine Scheidegg and Männlichen) or Mürren Schilthorn (Sportpass Mürren-Schilthorn) then it is not covered. I'm not sure what a 'Hiking + sledging pass' (For non-skiers) would cover.
There used to be a map showing the different regions and what each pass covered but I can't find it (I think it might have gone when they updated the website a couple of seasons ago)

Hi thanks for all the tips i ventured into Interlaken found a mcdonalds and a sex shop .............heavan just kiddin about sex shop , i did pass it but dare not go in. found the fritters at the Brandegg rail junction they were expensive but every mouthful was excellent. Snowboardin was excellent all though the first lift from the town took forever to get to the top [25minutes]. Oh well thats it for another.
