Snowpark Grindelwald-First

The snowboarding and freeskiing paradise

As soon as the first snow falls, the Pistenbullies ride on First to build the Snowpark Grindelwald-First. The terrain has already been preformed so that in a few days the 100-metre halfpipe and two parks with different degrees of difficulty emerge. The snowboard and freeski community can slide over the straight box or take off from the corner and from other kickers there. What a comfort: In 1989, the scene had to build its own obstacles, which took weeks of shovel work.

Highlights

Halfpipe

Since 1989, the halfpipe in Grindelwald has been shaping the snowboard and freeski scene. The first pipe was built back then on the Männlichen – hand-shaped by the local snowboard club from two piles of snow. In 1993, Grindelwald First built a permanent halfpipe above Schreckfeld using a Pipedragon. As the riders’ skills improved, their demands grew, leading to the construction of halfpipes with larger radii over time to allow for more airtime.
Oberjoch Park

Oberjoch Park in the Grindelwald-First ski area – freestyle action with kickers, rails, and features for beginners and pros in the Jungfrau Ski Region.
When you’re sitting on the Oberjoch chairlift, full of anticipation and gliding over rocky outcrops, you can spot the Oberjoch Park to the left of the top station. This snowpark, designed also for beginners, has everything your heart desires. Whether you’re trying freestyle for the first time, need a few warm-up laps early in the morning, or want to pull off some big tricks – the lines are suitable for all levels and, thanks to the creative obstacles, offer great variety. The snow-sure location at 2,500 m above sea level guarantees an early start to the season.
Skicross

Grindelwald-First ski cross course - officially recognised area with action for everyone: from families to athletes. Start at the Schilt ski lift.
Grindelwald has a Swiss Ski approved Ski Cross. On the strength of its experience in the sphere of ski cross, the resort has, for several years, been preparing a very attractive course next to the Schilt ski lift. Families and tourists fling themselves together through the starting-line archway and the starting gate onto the slope, thus enjoying the full cross experience.
