I have been to dozens of ski resorts, and typically the airport transfer is the lowlight of the week, as a packed coach lurches around zig zag bends, presenting the ultimate challenge in motion sickness. Arriving at Wengen in Switzerland is, by stark contrast, a cinematic delight, that is the ultimate ‘Accidentally Wes Anderson’ experience.
Wengen is a car-free Alpine village that can only be reached by tourists via a charming cog railway, named ‘Wengernalpbahn,’ which is painted on it in graphic yellow and green. On board you’ll be treated to the most magnificent, sweeping view of the Lauterbrunnen valley.
