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 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

Wengen PDFWengen Rep Report
Submitted by: Susie Llewelyn
Our Day
We joined forces with the DHO group and headed over to Murren and the hope of better visibility than yesterday and were rewarded with fantastic visibility all morning. Both coffee and lunch were at the Piz Gloria resolving restaurant, punctuated with numerous runs down from Piz Gloria handle also blacks 9 and 12, which was the favourite run of the day. A few of us planned to ski all the way down, however the cloud came back in and we eventually decided that downloading from Birg was a better option.
Weather
Mainly Sunny and Clare in the morning but then dense cloud coming and going early afternoon and setting in by mid to late afternoon.
News
Final day of the season for Ski club rep Service in the Jungfrau region this season.

Switzerland
Updated 01/04
Switzerland sits in the gap of good snowfall that is hitting the rest of the Alps this week, with some areas at the extreme East and West getting a few flurries to make up for it.
Areas around Zermatt and Verbier could get up to 10cm of snow from Tuesday afternoon through to midday Wednesday, mostly falling over higher ground as the freezing line hovers around 2,000m. Elsewhere, conditions remain dry and bright, but otherwise cool – the freezing line over the Grison Alps climbs from 500m over the course of the day to peak at 2,500m in Wednesday’s midday sun.
As the week continues, conditions across the region reach a confluence, with spring-like freeze-thaw conditions dominating. The freezing line will hover around 2,000m overnight, climbing to around 2,500m in the midday sun – this will put serious strain on lower slopes across the region as thaw-slush is not able to freeze overnight.
These conditions will continue through the coming weekend and into the new week.
