Wengen sits at the heart of the Jungfrau Region above the Lauterbrunnen valley, opposite Mürren and on the other side of the Männlichen ridge from Grindelwald.

It is perhaps best known for hosting the famous Lauberhorn downhill race, but the ski area is in fact an intermediate paradise – almost 90% of the resort’s runs are rated blue or red. The Jungfrau Region is home to 213km of pistes and 49 lifts (most of which are now fast) – so read on for the Ski Club’s comprehensive guide to this fantastic Swiss ski resort.

Pros and cons

Amazing scenery and sunny location
Small, traditional, nearly traffic-free Alpine village
Wide range of slopes for beginner and intermediate skiers
Lots to do away from the slopes

Limited terrain for experts unless there has been fresh snow
Resort run can be closed despite lots of snowmaking
Trains to slopes are slow and the Männlichen cable car can have long queues
Getting to/from Mürren for a day trip can take some time

On the Slopes

Although Wengen is famous for the fearsome Lauberhorn Downhill course – the longest and one of the toughest on the World Cup circuit – its slopes are best suited to intermediates.

For Beginners

There’s a nursery slope in the centre of the village – convenient and gentle, but it gets afternoon sun and at this modest altitude the snow can suffer.

However higher up there are beginner areas at both Männlichen and Kleine Scheidegg. There are then plenty of good, long, gentle runs to progress to on the slopes above Grindelwald, reached either by train to Kleine Scheidegg or cable car to Männlichen.

For Intermediates

Wengen and Grindelwald share superb easy intermediate slopes. Nearly all are long blue or gentle red runs (though there are genuine reds too). For tougher pistes, head for the top of the Lauberhorn chair or to Wixi (following the start of the Downhill course). You could also try the shady runs from Eigergletscher, which often has the best snow late in the season. Or head for Mürren – well worth it for adventurous intermediates for a day trip.

For Advanced/Expert & Off Piste

Wengen is quite limited for experts. The only genuine black runs in the area are parts of the Lauberhorn World Cup Downhill and a couple of pistes from Eigergletscher towards Wixi. There are some decent off piste runs from under the north face of the Eiger and the Eigernordwand lift helps with access to these. For more challenges it’s well worth going to nearby Mürren.

In the Resort

The village was a farming community long before skiing arrived; it is still tiny, but dominated by sizeable hotels, mostly of Victorian origin. So it is not exactly chocolate-box pretty, but it is charming and relaxed, and almost traffic-free. The short main street is the hub. Lined with chalet-style shops and hotels, it also has the ice rink and village nursery slopes right next to it.

For Families

Wengen is an attractive and reassuring village for families. The nursery slope is in the centre and the Playhouse kindergarten is in the tourist office nearby. There’s loads to do off the slopes, in including tobogganing, curling, ice skating, swimming and winter walking.

For Après Ski

If you’re used to raving in Kitzbühel or Val Thorens, Wengen is quiet on the après scene, especially for young people. But a number of bars are still popular at the end of the day, including the Pickel Bar, the ‘cosy’ bar of the Silberhorn Hotel, the traditional Tanne and the ‘lively’ Rocks Bar, with plasma screens showing Sky Sports.
On the mountain, the outdoor Läger Bar, next to the Männlichen chair, is good for sitting in a deckchair in the sun. Tipirama (a wigwam at Kleine Scheidegg) is a fun place immediately after skiing ‘if not too cold’, sometimes with DJs and live bands. The Wäsch bar at the Bumps section of the home run is a popular final-run stop-off.

Getting to Wengen

Wengen’s enviable location on the northern side of the Swiss Alps makes it a dream to get to. The best way is to use Switzerland’s quick, clean and efficient railway network to deliver you directly from the airport to the heart of the resort. Journey times from Zurich Airport take around three hours, or from Geneva Airport four. If you are on a transfer or driving yourself, note that Wengen is mostly car free; vehicles stop in the valley at Lauterbrunnen, from where you hop on the train for the short but sharp climb up the side of the valley to Wengen.

Zurich Airport (by train): 3hrs
Zurich Airport (by car to Lauterbrunnen, then train): 2hrs
Geneva Airport (by train): 4hrs

Snow Overview

Switzerland

Updated 07/04

After a good couple of weeks for the Swiss Alps, particular after the arrival of a series of Nordstau events, things settle down through this week as high pressure brings fine, dry and bright conditions to the region.

Temperatures will be warm, with the freezing line dropping only to 2,500m overnight and climbing as high as 3,500m in the midday sun. A rare flutter of cloud could move in over on Friday and Sunday, but otherwise spring is firmly here in the Swiss Alps.

A couple of flurries of snow could fall early next week as the freezing line drops in to the new week, but it remains a bit too early to tell exactly how much, when, and where this might fall.
