    Public transport

    Thanks to its central location in Europe, Switzerland is served by international trains from over 12 countries. Within Switzerland, Intercity trains run directly from Basel and Lucerne to the Jungfrau Region. Travelers from Zurich change trains in Bern. The trains run every half hour.

    From Interlaken Ost station, we reach Wengen in 44 minutes. With the blue-yellow train of the Bernese Oberland Railway (BOB), we get to Lauterbrunnen. Important: We sit in the front part of the train, as it splits in Zweilütschinen. Those sitting in the rear make a detour to Grindelwald. In Lauterbrunnen, we transfer to the yellow-green train of the Wengernalp Railway (WAB), which takes us to Wengen in 12 minutes.

    Directions

    From Basel and Geneva, the fastest route to the Jungfrau Region is via Bern. From Zurich, the route via Lucerne and the Brünig Pass is recommended. The pass is open all year round.

    From the south, access is via the Grimsel or Susten Pass into the Jungfrau Region. Both passes are only open in summer. As an alternative, the Simplon Pass with the subsequent car shuttle through the Lötschberg Tunnel is available.

    Wengen is car-free. If arriving by car, it must be left in Lauterbrunnen, and the train taken. The journey from Interlaken to Lauterbrunnen takes about 20 minutes.

    Lauterbrunnen Arrival

    Parking

    Directly below Lauterbrunnen station is a multi-story parking garage. Alternatively, the parking lot by Lauterbrunnen church can be used. From there, a bus runs to the station every half hour. On foot, it takes about 10 minutes.

    Lauterbrunnen Parking Garage

    From the Lauterbrunnen parking garage, a covered walkway leads to the trains to Wengen.
