| Good to Know | Wengen liegt auf einer windgeschützten Sonnenterrasse am Fusse des landschaftlich einzigartigen Dreigestirns Eiger, Mönch und Jungfrau - 400 m hoch über dem Lauterbrunnental. Der Ort ist nur mit der Bahn zu erreichen und bietet deshalb die Ruhe und erklärtle Langsamkeit eines verkehrsarmen Dorfes. |
