I am planning a short stay in Wengen coming up April 7 thru 9. I am looking for things to do in the area. I have been to Jungfrau previously. I have not been to Schilthorn. I am looking for maybe some hikes with good scenery or views which I think I have read that most trails are not open yet and with the snow melting could be muddy. I guess ideally I would like to hike/walk from point A to point B where I can take the train to or from with maybe a 2 to 4 hour hike/walk.

Hi Spaulus69,

I don’t know that area for hiking in early April but get some inspiration by following these links:
– http://www.myswissalps.com/in terlaken/activities
– http://www.myswissalps.com/we ngen/activities

I would stick to altitudes of below or around 1000 meters to avoid the possibility of hikes/paths being closed or too snowy/sloshy. To find out in detail which trails are available I recommend you contact the local Tourist Office upon arrival.

Maybe another forum member can offer more personal experience.

Best,
Steph

Ski season will just be ending around then so you’re hikes will be limited I would say…You might luck out if the snow pack was good and the groomed winter trails are still open higher up. You’ll have to be flexible and check-in at the tourist office when you are there I think.

<<“groomed winter trails are still open higher up. “>>

Thought that they stopped grooming on march 31?
