2 weeks in Lauterbrunnen or Wengen in July
-
Hello,
We are travelling to Switzerland for 16 days in July with a 3-year old. We would like to do some family-friendly hikes and bike around town where possible. Below is a draft of our itinerary. I would greatly appreciate the experts here to let me know if we are packing in too much and whether we can do all of this with a toddler.
Also, should we stay in Lauterbrunnen or Wengen? We’d prefer a lower altitude town, so don’t want to stay over at Murren.
Much appreciate your feedback and advice.
