As your travel agent, I recommend preparing for your trip with a mix of practical guides and inspiring reads. For planning, look for recent editions of Lonely Planet Switzerland, Rick Steves Switzerland and the Rough Guide to Switzerland, all of which have good coverage of the Bernese Oberland and Grindelwald. For hiking and viewpoints, consider a dedicated Bernese Oberland guide (for example, Cicerone’s books on walking in the Bernese Oberland) and detailed topographic maps from Swisstopo. For inspiration and background, books on the Swiss Alps such as The Alps: A Human History from Hannibal to Heidi and Beyond (Stephen O’Shea) and photo books about the Jungfrau Region will give you context on local culture, history and landscapes. Finally, download a few offline resources before you go, such as the SBB Mobile app for trains and any Grindelwald or Jungfrau Region official apps or PDFs, which often include village maps, church information and recommended scenic viewpoints.
