I want to stay couple days in a alpine village.

I’ve 2 options:

(1) Thun to Lautterbrunen + Wengen + Grindelwald and return to Thun.

and later go to Zermatt and stay there for 2 days.

or

(2) Just stay in Wengen (or Grindelwald) and visit Lauterbrunnen, Thun, Wengen, Murren, Grindelwald slowly

I went in Zermatt 2 years ago and loved it, so, know I’ve doubt if I must come back there or just stay in Interlaken region.

If your help says that I must stay in Jungfrau Region…Should I stay in Wengen or Grindelwald?

Tks

Hi Tatimoreira,

Both areas are beautiful, I would say that there is a lot to do specially in the Jungfrau area so perhaps it would be better to have a longer stay there given you have already seen Zermatt. However I will let others comment.

If you stay in the area then Wengen and Grindelwald are comparable – Wengen is car-free whilst Grindelwald is not. The time of year is also important, Grindelwald may be better if you’re coming during the low season for example…

Here is a forum thread that will help you with more information: http://www.myswissalps.com/fo rum/topic/tips-about-wengen-and-the-jungfrau-region-by-kim

Hi again Tati,

I posted the links to all the areas above so you can have a read and decide.

Personally, if I had already seen Zermatt I would stay longer in the Wengen and Grindelwald areas, given there is so much to do there, specially as I don’t like changing hotels and travelling too far (I would prefer to spend time on a cable car to the top of a mountain or hiking rather than travel across Switzerland), that’s just me 🙂

However your family priorities might be different, what is more important for your mum and daughter? By which criteria are you making your decision?

To verify travel times between your destinations, you can use the timetable tool http://www.myswissalps.com/ti metable

Let us know more about what you are after and we’ll be happy to advise further 🙂

Maria.
