Grindelwald Terminal railway station (German: Bahnhof Grindelwald Terminal) is a transportation complex in the municipality of Grindelwald in the Swiss canton of Bern. It is the valley station for two cableways: the Eiger Express to the Eiger Glacier, and the Grindelwald–Männlichen to the Männlichen. Trains on the Bernese Oberland line stop here as well, providing regular service to Interlaken Ost and Grindelwald.

The station opened in December 2019, along with the rebuilt Grindelwald–Männlichen cableway.[3] The Eiger Express, some fifty minutes faster than the rail journey via Grindelwald and Kleine Scheidegg, opened in December 2020.[4]
