Hi
I am travelling with my 13 year old son in June. We will reach Grindelwald in the afternoon (from Zurich) and we plan to stay there for 3 nights. Please suggest some scenic hikes ranging from 2-4 hours (upto medium difficulty) which we can do from Grindelwald. I am happy to take a train if the hike starts somewhere else
This is a great site for info. You’ll need to check which trails are open. Some don’t open until mid-late June due to snow.

It very much depends on when in June this is - as what's open in early June is very different than late June.
We are there in 3rd week June
Hi - A couple years ago, I posted a trip report on hikes in the Berner Oberland. Most of the hikes were in the range of 2-4 hours that you indicated. I assume you can access the trip report by clicking on my posts. Good luck on some fantastic hiking! (Please note that my hiking was in September so I’m not sure about the trail conditions in June)
There is wonderful hike from Bussalp to Bort. You take a bus up, and it is an amazing ride. Then walk to Bort where you can take the cableway back to Grindelwald. Very few people on the trail, great peak views, and a delightful hütte at Rasthysi for refreshments along the way.
Editing to add it took us a bit over 2 hours.
I am curious which hikes you enjoyed the most.
