Sledging in Wengen
Down from the Männlichen or from Wengernalp: sledging is winter fun for the whole family.
The Jungfrau Ski Region has around 50 km of sledge runs. Some start right above Wengen: the Fox Run from Wengernalp down to the village and the runs from the Männlichen to Holenstein.
You can rent sledges and helmets from us. And so that the fun doesn’t end with cold fingers, you will find waterproof gloves, warm jackets and goggles for young and old.
