Chalets in a car-free village above the Lauterbrunnen valley, facing the Jungfrau
As featured in
A car-free village with a view of the Jungfrau
Wengen is reached only by cog railway from Lauterbrunnen, and that gives it a quiet, old-fashioned charm that few resorts can match. It sits on a sunny shelf above the Lauterbrunnen valley, facing the Jungfrau, and it has a long British connection: the Downhill Only Club was founded here in 1925. Every January, the Lauberhorn, the longest downhill on the World Cup circuit, finishes just above the village.
Our Wengen collection includes 26 chalets and apartments, many with balconies facing the Jungfrau and the valley below.
Here is a guide to Wengen and its skiing.

Wengen for a car-free village and the Lauberhorn, Grindelwald across the ridge for the Eiger, and Mürren and Lauterbrunnen across the valley.
No cars, no hurry
Wengen's lanes are traffic-free, its hotels and chalets look out over the valley, and its pace is gentle. Below it, the Lauterbrunnen valley is known for its waterfalls and sheer rock walls, and across the valley lies Mürren, another car-free village.

The Lauberhorn and the link to Grindelwald
From Wengen, trains and lifts climb to Kleine Scheidegg and Männlichen, where the Jungfrau Ski Region links to Grindelwald. The runs are scenic and mostly suited to intermediates, while the Lauberhorn downhill, longest on the World Cup circuit, is a famous test for experts.
Grindelwald chalets
Winter and summer
The ski season usually runs from mid December to early April. Lauberhorn week in January is busy and exciting. Summer brings fine walking, mountain railways and the waterfalls of the Lauterbrunnen valley. Our concierge can arrange transfers, rail tickets, ski hire and lessons.
