* Grindelwald World Snow Festival, January 19 -- 24

Every January, ice art takes center stage in the beautiful Swiss village of Grindelwald. Artists from around the world arrive in mid-January to accept the ice challenge. They start with meter-high blocks of ice and spend six days creating spectacular sculptures.

Festival-goers are delighted to see the process as well as the finished pieces. An added benefit is the chance to enjoy the breathtaking scenery around Grindelwald.

Don't let the cold weather keep you inside this season. There are lots of fun and exciting events to attend!
