The entire V-Cableway generation project will be opened on 5 December 2020, earlier than planned. Thanks to the good weather and the enormous commitment of everyone involved on the various construction sites, the heaviest tricable gondola ever built, the Eiger Express, will transport guests from Grindelwald Grund to the Eiger Glacier in 15 minutes from the beginning of December.

Visitors from all over Switzerland will gain 47 minutes on their journey with the Eiger Express. The winter sports areas and the Jungfraujoch – Top of Europe are within reach for everyone. The modern terminal in Grindelwald Grund with public transport connections, a car park, shopping facilities and the two new railways Eiger Express and GGM really make a mark on the tourist landscape.
Current work on the V-Cableway construction sites
The interior work at the Grindelwald Grund terminal is currently continuing. The structural work on the multi-storey car park will be completed in mid-July. The interior fittings will then be carried out. The concrete work on the Eiger Glacier has been completed. Here too, the interior work is now continuing, both at the summit station of the Eiger Express and on the new third track for the Jungfrau Railway. The schedule backlog totalling several weeks has been completely made up. Now everything is running on schedule and the opening of the Eiger Express can even be brought forward a week.The cable hoist for the Eiger Express has been running since 30 April. The large incline of 1,385 metres and the length of the track at 6,480 metres require seven track supports and suspension cables with a diameter of 58 millimetres.
The cable hoist work is expected to be completed in early August. The preparatory work for the cable hoist took months. The approximately 400 tonnes of assembly tools include cable winches, protective scaffolding for rail and road crossings and auxiliary supports. The total of four suspension cables and the cable hoist were transported to Grindelwald in several heavy transports.
