Wengen Ski Holidays

Wengen ski resort is famous in ski racing for its intimidating Lauberhorn Men’s Downhill World Cup race, which is held every January. Experts can try out this challenging descent for themselves, or head to the fearsome Black Rock run that starts at the base of the Eiger and the almost vertical Kanonenrohr in Mürren. The runs in the Wengen/Grindelwald sector are mostly blues or gentle reds. These are perfect for intermediate skiers and the dramatic mountain scenery that surrounds them is an important additional pleasure.

With many ski schools and instructors to choose between, there really is something for everybody.

We’ve partnered with New Generation and Oxygène and highly recommend their services. All of our partners offer fantastic lessons for all skiing ability levels.

Book your ski lessons with our recommended suppliers. If you’re traveling during a peak week be sure to book these well in advance.

The Kleine Scheidegg ski area offers a good selection of dining options. Restaurant Grindelwaldblick is situated above all the other restaurants at Klein Scheidegg and serves traditional food in skier-appropriate portions. The Spycher hut is a great novelty dining experience, with an accompanying ice bar from which you can enjoy a refreshing drink in the late afternoon sunshine. Down in the town, most of the restaurants are in Wengen’s hotels. The Hotel Regina’s Chez Meyer offers fine dining with panoramic views of the surrounding valley.

There are plenty of off-slope activities in Wengen ski resort for non-skiers. The town’s cinema shows English films and there are plenty of interesting shops and dining experiences to enjoy. The ski resort also has a multitude of alternative sports activities on offer, such as heli-skiing, curling, hiking, hang-gliding, bowling and indoor tennis. Those on the pursuit of some rest and relaxation will enjoy use of the resort’s spa facilities, sauna and indoor swimming pool.
