Destination introduction
Wengen is Kuoni's most popular resort in Switzerland with its clean mountain air, car-free lifestyle and hours of sunshine. Lying in the centre of the Bernese Oberland at 1 300 meters, it is one of the prettiest Alpine villages in Switzerland offering family friendly skiing, tobogganing and some of the best walking holidays in Europe. There are over 300 miles of sign posted hiking paths as well as 15 mountain cableways. Walk through cool pine woods or lush flower filled meadows, all against the perfect backdrop of the Jungfrau, Eiger and Mönch mountains.
With its charming, traditional wood chalets, Wengen is a true mountain resort, home to a busy little mountain railway taking you down to Lauterbrunnen or up to the breathtaking beauty of the Jungfraujoch.
