The fans of ski sports probably know the famous Swiss spa town of Wengen, which is situated on the territory of the region of the Jungfrau region. This is where Lauberhorn races take place. The competition has been named as a 'black' ski slope of the same name, one of the most dangerous and longest in the world. The extent of Lauberhorn races is 4 455 meters, and the difference in altitude is more than 1 000 meters.
The upper part of the ski slope is relatively easy and even fits for mid-level skiers. The closer to the center of the ski slope, the more difficult the routes become. The ski slope is incredibly steep, stretching through the rocks and ends with an incredibly steep ending, which is almost always icy. Wengen is one of the most picturesque resorts in Switzerland. Both beginners, intermediate level skiers and real professionals will find a suitable ski slope for themselves.
One of the most attractive features of Wengen is its unique ecology. There is no traffic on the health resort, so the air is always very fresh. Usually, the ski season starts in the middle of December and lasts until the end of April. The guests of the spa resort have a great choice of entertainment, which is not limited to skiing. All year round, the special curling hall and ice rink are open. And in the summer, the tennis courts and the Minigolf fields are available to the health resort guests. Wengen also has the typical entertainment infrastructure and is a location for restaurants, colorful bars and discos, a cinema and even a concert hall.
