Back in the 1930s, the little rack railway took wealthy winter sports enthusiasts to Wengen, and the resort has retained its elegant atmosphere, grand hotels and jingling sleighs ever since. Club Med® built its Resort here in 1976, just outside the charming village, which lies in the heart of the largest massif in the Alps. It's the perfect base for exploring the surrounding mountains (the Jungfrau is one of the most famous), while your children have a great time at Mini Club Med®. After a day in the open air, settle down and relax in the cosy lounges of the elegant Art Deco hotel. Elevation: 1,400 metres (4,600 ft).

Wengen lies on a sunny shelf beneath some of the most recognisable mountains in the Alps - the north face of the Eiger, the Jungfrau and the Schilthorn.
