Getting to First from Wengen

First is a separate area above Grindelwald. Its lower gondola station is in Grindelwald village, rather than at Grindelwald Terminal. Jungfrau Railways gives an eight-minute walk from Grindelwald railway station to the First gondola.

Plan the railway journey from Wengen to Grindelwald village for your date. Once there, allow about 8–10 minutes to walk to the gondola, then time for the ride up to First.

From your front door to the lift

Get to Wengen. Then choose your way up.

For Männlichen, use the cable car in the village. For Kleine Scheidegg, use the railway. Keep those two starting points separate.

By train

Travel to Interlaken Ost, continue to Lauterbrunnen, then change to the Wengernalp Railway for Wengen. For Männlichen, walk through the village to the cable car. For Kleine Scheidegg, take the train uphill from Wengen.

Plan your train journey ↗

By car

Leave your car at Lauterbrunnen station car park and continue to Wengen by train. There is no visitor road access to Wengen. Check the operator’s parking page before setting out.

Lauterbrunnen parking information ↗

Back to your hotel

Finish at Wengen by taking the Männlichen cable car down, or the Wengernalp Railway from Kleine Scheidegg. To return to your car, take the train from Wengen down to Lauterbrunnen. Check the day’s last cable car and train before your final lap.

Start here

Wengen–Männlichen cable car

Wengiboden 1350f, 3823 Wengen, Switzerland

Choosing a hotel or apartment? Enter its address as the starting point in walking directions, then check the route to this lift.

The pin marks the lower cable-car station in Wengen village. Grindelwald Terminal is a different starting point on the other side of the mountain.

From Interlaken Ost, take the train to Lauterbrunnen and change for Wengen. The cable-car operator allows about 15 minutes for Lauterbrunnen–Wengen and a three-minute walk from Wengen station to this lower cable-car station. The cable-car ride to Männlichen takes about six minutes.

Arriving by car: Lauterbrunnen station car park; continue to Wengen by train. Wengen is car-free. Leave the car in Lauterbrunnen and take the Wengernalp Railway up to Wengen, then walk to the cable car. Parking details ↗

Where to stay

A Wengen base we can personally recommend.

David stayed at Grand Hotel Belvedere and loved it. It puts you in the village for Männlichen and Kleine Scheidegg days; First and Mürren still involve separate journeys.

A personal recommendation

Grand Hotel Belvedere

“I stayed here and it was excellent.”David, BlueRuns founder

A hotel base in car-free Wengen for days on Männlichen and Kleine Scheidegg. Arrive by train from Lauterbrunnen, then continue through the village to the hotel.

Getting to the slopes. Walk through Wengen to the Männlichen cable car, or start at Wengen railway station for the train towards Kleine Scheidegg. These are two separate ways onto the mountain.

The hotel lists Wengen railway station as 450 m away. Ask the hotel about arrival with luggage and equipment.

Before you book the trip.

Where should I start with blue runs in Wengen?

For a repeatable mountain lap, look at blue 2 Wasserwendi on Männlichen: cable car up from Wengen, blue run down to the Männlichen chairlift, then chair back up. If you are still learning to stop and link turns, choose a lesson or learning area before committing to a mountain blue.

Can I ski a blue back to Wengen?

The operator maps the blue 36 route from Kleine Scheidegg through Wengernalp and Allmend towards Wengen. Check that each lower section is open. You can also use the railway from Kleine Scheidegg, Wengernalp or Allmend instead of skiing all the way to the village.

Are Grindelwald–Wengen, First and Mürren all connected by ski runs?

No. Männlichen and Kleine Scheidegg share the Grindelwald–Wengen mountain. First has a separate gondola in Grindelwald village. Mürren–Schilthorn is across the Lauterbrunnen valley. Treat First and Mürren as separate outings, with their own journey back to Wengen.

Can I drive to Wengen?

Wengen is car-free. Park in Lauterbrunnen and take the Wengernalp Railway up to Wengen. For Männlichen, continue on foot to the cable-car station; for Kleine Scheidegg, take the train uphill from Wengen.
