From here we followed the milky glacial meltwaters of the Lutschine River to Lauterbrunnen where we boarded the train for the last leg of our journey to Wengen, perched high on the alp above. It was a short walk to our hotel where we had time to settle in and admire the amazing scenery. It had been a very hot day with temperatures in the mid-30s and, as we enjoyed our evening meal on the terrace, we were treated to a superb alpenglow on the Jungfrau. Day 2 Monday 27th June The hot sunny weather of yesterday looked set to continue, so we took the cable-car up to Mannlichen. We were immediately in a different world, surrounded by a panorama of mountains, dominated by the imposing north faces of the Jungfrau and Eiger, and with a wealth of alpine flowers at our feet. -

Lots of Snow on the Lauberhorn - Unfortunately No Spectators
Verein Internationale Lauberhornrennen Postfach 385 CH-3823 Wengen Tel. +41 33 856 66 66 [email protected] www.lauberhorn.ch CHE-107.310.838 MWST Wengen, 31 December 2020 Lots of snow on the Lauberhorn - unfortunately no spectators An important test shortly before the 91st International Lauberhorn Races in Wengen has been passed: The snow inspection by the International Ski Federation FIS. The organizers are looking forward to exciting ski races in the Alpine World Cup despite the tough Corona conditions. They ask all ski fans to watch the races on TV due to the pandemic, as no spectators are allowed in Wengen. The International Ski Federation FIS checked the Ski World Cup courses on the Lauberhorn today, Friday (December 31, 2020). The snow inspection turned out to be positive throughout. Thanks to the snowfalls in the past few days, the entire mountain is covered in deep snow. This means that the slopes and also the scenery are ready for the 91st International Lauberhorn Races in Wengen. "So far this year, all in all, we have been lucky with the weather. The temperatures have been below freezing for a few days. The cold is perfect for the snow on and also off the piste," says a pleased OC President Urs Näpflin. Preparations in Wengen are on track. Please watch the races on television This year's Lauberhorn races, as in all areas of our lives, are strongly influenced by the ongoing pandemic. As is well known, the races will therefore be held without spectators. The spectator areas along the course, such as the popular Girmschbiel facing Hundschopf, Minschkannte and Canadian Corner will be closed. -

Switzerland - June 2009
SWITZERLAND - JUNE 2009. We decided to visit the area around Wengen for a week in mid June, in the hope of locating a few mammals and birds, and enjoying the superb scenery. We stayed in the excellent Hotel Berghaus www.wengen.com/hotel/berghaus which is a small family run establishment. As we were aware of the high cost of living in Switzerland, we opted for half board which allowed us to have a four course evening meal at a pre determined cost. This was a good move, although it did somewhat limit our flexibility in the evenings. As Wengen is a largely car-free town ( the only vehicles being licensed to residents ) having a hire car is not an option. Therefore travel is by cog railway, cable car or on foot ! We pre-bought Swiss Passes prior to our visit. These entitled us to free transfers from the airport to Wengen and back, and half price tickets on the trains and cable cars, for £ 107 each. As someone who rarely ( if ever ) uses public transport, I was slightly apprehensive about how easy all the travel would be. In fact, the signs throughout were excellent both on public transport, and on the walking trails and it proved simple to get around. The weather was mixed during our week. It is fairly obvious that on sunny days concentrate on the higher areas, as if the cloud or rain sets in the visibility falls to near zero !! Mammals: Alpine Ibex - 2 males seen on the slopes above Biglenalp on 17th. This seems to be a favoured area, as others have seen them here in previous years. -
