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 Advanced/Expert & Off Piste
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

Switzerland
Updated 17/02
Snowfall continues across Switzerland to start this week, following from the large totals experienced elsewhere – and with cold temperatures in play as the freezing line floats around 500m decreasing to sea level across the region, this will hit the whole mountain. Around a foot of snow is expected across higher ground in the east, decreasing to around 10cm on lower elevations and further west.
Flurries continue with obscured cloud cover throughout wednesday and thursday, with conditions remaining relatively cold. Another storm system moves across the eastern reaches of the region on Friday, meaning a further fot-and-a-half can be expected down across higher slopes; the freezing line will kip up to around 1,500m during this period.
Snowfall tapers off into the weekend with a burst of sunshine on the cards for the start of the new week; spring-like conditions will appear for the first time with freeze-thaw conditions overnight.

Robert Anderson
Repping dates: 14/02/2026 - 28/02/2026I love the outdoors, and the combination of snow and mountains creates a special attraction. For many years I have introduced friends and family to skiing, helping them to develop and share in a great sport and environment. I saw being a Rep as a chance to meet new people, make friends, and share this passion. My other passion is rugby, which I played for over 30 years, and have also coached and refereed. I also enjoy scuba diving, which I have pursued in many countries, and one of the most interesting was an ice-dive at Tignes-le-lac.
Ben Nilsson
Repping dates: 28/02/2026 - 14/03/2026Welcome to paradise. That's the feeling I get when I come to one of these fantastic ski resorts. I've always loved skiing and snow ever since I was a little kid living in southern Sweden. I started alpine skiing when I was 10 and competed as a junior for 5 years. After that, I've travelled around Europe every winter to ski from above the Arctic Circle down to southern Spain. I met my wife who also loves skiing so it was a perfect match. Our daughter competed in alpine skiing for 10 years and during that time I got involved as a race coach for the local ski club. As a pensioner, I then worked for a few winters as a ski instructor in Austria and Norway. By chance, I found out about SCGB and saw this as a very nice concept and now I will represent the club for a few weeks. Looking forward to meeting you all in the wonderful Junfrau massif. Let it snow
Richard Hartley
Repping dates: 14/03/2026 - 28/03/2026I was fortunate enough to get a small tax rebate in my first term at Medical School (1980) and I squandered it on a ski trip to Austria. Ski School was 5 hours a day and the instructor (Maggie O'Malley, genuinely the daughter of an Irish New York Policeman), took no prisoners. I loved it and to the detriment of my bank balance (and excepting COVID) have skied every year since.
I have skied many European resorts, but never North America or Japan. I find skiing with company makes a good day great, and as I drift into retirement, repping with the ski club seemed the natural thing to do.
