THE AREA
The idyllic alpine resort of Wengen is situated south of Interlaken
and west of Grindelwald, in the heart of the Bernese Oberland. One of
Switzerland's oldest resorts, Wengen still retains its unspoiled village
atmosphere. It is accessible only by mountain railway (cars must be
left at the station below), and it is the first stop on the route that
ascends the Jungfrau, one of Europe's most celebrated peaks. If you
continue by rail up to the mountaintop, you will reach the world's highest
train station, where you can savor views usually enjoyed only by experienced
mountain climbers. During the summer, Wengen is popular with hikers;
the local footpaths offer spectacular views of tiny villages nestled
in valleys hundreds or even thousands of feet below. For those who enjoy
the breathtaking ride up and down the mountain, Wengen also makes an
excellent base for exploring central Switzerland, including many beautiful
mountain lakes.

a large 3-bedroom apartment in Haus Breithorn, a private chalet close
