The Grindelwald-Wengen ski area sits beneath the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau, but the ticket most visitors buy is broader than its name suggests. The current Skipass Jungfrau covers the full Jungfrau Ski Region, so understanding the 2026/27 prices, age categories, high-season rules and included transport can save both money and confusion before you reach the lifts.
Quick Answer
For the 2026/27 season, an adult Jungfrau Ski Region day pass costs CHF 79 at the standard rate or CHF 83 during designated high-season periods and on low-season weekends. The pass covers Grindelwald-Wengen, Grindelwald-First and Mürren-Schilthorn, with qualifying rail travel from Interlaken Ost included.
Key Takeaways
- The official Jungfrau Ski Region has 211 km of pistes across Grindelwald-Wengen, Grindelwald-First and Mürren-Schilthorn.
- For 2026/27, adult day passes are CHF 79 at the standard rate or CHF 83 at the higher rate.
- Published age categories are adults 20+, youth 16–19 and children 6–15.
- Up to three children aged 6–15 can ski free on Saturdays when an adult buys a qualifying day or afternoon ticket at list price.
- The half-day pass starts at 12:00 and must be purchased at a station or cable-car sales point rather than online.
- Always check live operating information because lift and piste openings depend on snow and weather.
The official Jungfrau Ski Region ski-pass page lists 211 km of pistes and one regional ski pass rather than a separate ticket limited only to Grindelwald and Wengen. The same pass can be used in Grindelwald-First, Männlichen, Kleine Scheidegg, Wengen and the Mürren-Schilthorn area, subject to the short-duration Schilthorn restriction explained below.

Types of Ski Passes Available
The main product for skiing in Grindelwald and Wengen is the Skipass Jungfrau. One pass gives access to Grindelwald-Wengen with Kleine Scheidegg and Männlichen, Grindelwald-First, and Mürren-Schilthorn rather than forcing you to buy separate ski-area tickets.
For shorter visits, you can choose an afternoon half-day pass or a one-day pass. Multi-day options are published for 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 14 days, which makes it easier to match the ticket to the length of your ski holiday.
For skiers who want a broader season product, the AlpsPass is a separate option. For its 2026 presale period, Jungfrau Railways lists it at CHF 949 for adults, CHF 299 for youth and CHF 199 for children. It provides season access across several Swiss ski destinations rather than functioning as a normal multi-day Grindelwald-Wengen ticket.
Note: Do not confuse the ski pass with the Unlimited Jungfrau Winter Pass or Winter Hiking and Sledging Pass. Those products are designed for winter hiking, sledging and transport rather than serving as a replacement for the regional ski pass.
How to Purchase a Ski Pass
The easiest option is to buy the pass through the official Jungfrau Railways ski-pass shop. Online buyers can load the ski pass onto their own physical SBB SwissPass or choose a Jungfrau Ski Region KeyCard for collection.
KeyCards can be collected from numerous Jungfrau Railways sales points and pickup machines, including Grindelwald Terminal, Grindelwald station, Wengen station, Lauterbrunnen, Interlaken Ost and other locations in the region. If you load the ticket onto a SwissPass, you need the physical SwissPass card with you to ski.
The afternoon half-day pass works differently. It is valid from 12:00 and is available from train and cable-car stations in the Jungfrau Region, but it is not bookable online.
Pro Tip: If you already have a compatible physical SBB SwissPass, loading your ski pass onto it can remove the need to collect a separate KeyCard before heading to the lifts.
Grindelwald Wengen Ski Pass Prices for 2026/27
The official 2026/27 price table separates adults aged 20 and older, youth aged 16–19 and children aged 6–15. Adults also have a higher rate during designated high-season dates. Prices below are in Swiss francs per person and come from the current Jungfrau Ski Region price list.
| Validity | Adult 20+ Standard | Adult 20+ High Rate | Youth 16–19 | Children 6–15 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ½ day, from 12:00 | CHF 62 | CHF 65 | CHF 36 | CHF 30 |
| 1 day | CHF 79 | CHF 83 | CHF 45 | CHF 38 |
| 2 days | CHF 156 | CHF 164 | CHF 88 | CHF 75 |
| 3 days | CHF 232 | CHF 244 | CHF 131 | CHF 105 |
| 4 days | CHF 299 | CHF 314 | CHF 174 | CHF 135 |
| 5 days | CHF 354 | CHF 372 | CHF 217 | CHF 161 |
| 6 days | CHF 404 | CHF 424 | CHF 247 | CHF 183 |
| 7 days | CHF 450 | CHF 473 | CHF 271 | CHF 204 |
| 14 days | CHF 670 | CHF 704 | CHF 406 | CHF 304 |
When Do Higher Adult Prices Apply?
For 2026/27, the higher adult rate applies during December 19, 2026 through January 3, 2027 and January 30 through February 28, 2027. For half-day and one-day tickets, the higher rate also applies on Saturdays and Sundays during the low season.
This makes weekday skiing outside the designated high-season windows one of the simplest ways for an adult visitor to obtain the lower published day-ticket price. The difference is modest, but it can add up for a group or repeated ski days.
Note: Jungfrau Railways lists the ski pass for November 21, 2026 through April 25, 2027, but actual ski-area operations depend on snow and weather. The operator warns that late-November service may initially be limited to weekend or partial operations.
Family, Child and Group Discounts
The current public price list does not use generic “student,” “senior,” “Basic,” “Standard” or “Premium” discount categories. Instead, the main ski-pass table uses three age bands: adult from age 20, youth aged 16–19 and children aged 6–15.
Families should also know that normal Swiss family reductions such as the Junior Card, Children’s Co-Travelcard and Swiss Family Card are not valid in combination with the ski pass. Children in the 6–15 age range therefore need the applicable ski pass unless they qualify for a specific promotion.
Children Ski Free on Saturdays
One of the most useful verified family offers is the Saturday promotion. Up to three children aged 6–15 can receive a free one-day ski pass on Saturday when an adult buys a one-day or afternoon ticket at the list price.
The offer is available online and at railway stations in the Jungfrau Ski Region. It does not apply to multi-day passes, season passes or certain special promotions.
Group Ski Passes
Jungfrau Railways also accepts group ski-pass orders. Its general group rules state that a reservation is required for groups of 10 or more to receive group rates, and the ski-pass page provides a dedicated group ordering process.
State-school groups receive additional published conditions, including one free accompanying-person ski pass for every 10 schoolchild ski passes purchased. Other accompanying people pay the applicable group rate for their age category.
What Is Included in the Jungfrau Ski Pass?
The Skipass Jungfrau is valid across the entire Jungfrau Ski Region, including Grindelwald-First, Männlichen, Kleine Scheidegg, Wengen, Mürren and Schilthorn. It also includes qualifying train travel from Interlaken Ost, so visitors arriving from Interlaken do not need a separate ticket merely to reach the covered ski region on the included route.
The official pass information also lists the First Flyer and First Glider as included. Availability of lifts, pistes and activities can still depend on weather and operating conditions.
Special Rule for Mürren-Schilthorn
There is an important exception for short-duration tickets. On the Mürren-Schilthorn route, half-day, one-day and two-day ski passes are valid only for the ascent; an additional charge is payable where required at the Schilthornbahn ticket counter.
Warning: Do not assume the ski pass includes every bus, winter activity, rental, lesson or excursion in the wider Jungfrau Region. Check the official validity information for the exact transport or activity you plan to use.
Season Dates and Live Operating Conditions
The Jungfrau Railways ticket pages currently list the 2026/27 regional ski pass for November 21, 2026 to April 25, 2027. That date range should not be interpreted as a guarantee that every lift and piste will operate every day throughout the period.
Snow, weather and operational conditions determine what actually opens. Before leaving your hotel or travelling from Interlaken, check the official Jungfrau Ski Region live slope data for current lifts, pistes, snow information and valley runs.
Cancellation and Rebooking Rules
Webshop ski passes can currently be cancelled or rebooked free of charge until 23:59 on the day before the first day of validity. The change must be handled through the online customer service system.
Once the ticket is valid, the operator does not generally provide refunds simply because the pass cannot continue to be used. Jungfrau Railways offers optional cancellation insurance during the booking process for covered situations, so read the current conditions if trip disruption is a concern.
Tips for Getting the Best Value from Your Ski Pass
Choose the duration before you arrive. Compare the exact number of ski days you expect to use rather than automatically buying daily tickets. The official multi-day table makes the comparison straightforward.
Consider a low-season weekday. Adults can access the lower published half-day and one-day rate outside designated high-season periods on weekdays. Low-season Saturdays and Sundays still use the higher price for these short tickets.
Use the Saturday child promotion when it fits your trip. For a family with children aged 6–15, qualifying Saturdays can produce a much larger saving than a small percentage discount.
Use the included Interlaken Ost rail connection. If your journey starts in Interlaken, confirm the covered route before paying separately for transport that your Skipass Jungfrau already includes.
Check operations before committing to one area. Because the same regional ski pass spans multiple ski areas, current lift and slope information can help you decide where conditions are best that day.
Do not buy the wrong winter product. A Winter Hiking and Sledging Pass may look attractive if you are comparing Jungfrau tickets, but it serves a different purpose from the Skipass Jungfrau.
