What to do there

TastingGondola 888: The Eiger Express Cabin With a Champagne BarThe Eiger Express climbs from Grindelwald Terminal to Eigergletscher in 15 minutes. 44 of its cabins have 26 seats; one VIP gondola, numbered 888, has a champagne bar in the centre. It is not sold at the ticket office: it belongs to the railway's Platinum Club, whose members bring up to four guests a day. The gondola bar anyone can book is the VIP-Bordbar on the Männlichen gondola, from the same terminal. Or ride 888's line up, walk the north face's story down to Kleine Scheidegg and raise a glass there.
