Hiking in Wengen
Flower meadows, ridge paths and the north face in view: the finest hikes in the Jungfrau region start outside our door.
Whether it is a leisurely panorama trail or a climb along the Lauberhorn course: from Wengen you reach the finest trails on foot, by the Wengernalp railway or by cable car up to the Männlichen.
The most important piece of equipment is your footwear. Take your time trying boots on with us – with your hiking socks and ideally in the afternoon, when your feet are slightly bigger.
