Lauterbrunnen unfolds its very own magic in winter. When the cold season envelops the snow-covered peaks of the Jungfrau Region, the idyllic valley is transformed into a true winter wonderland. The majestic waterfalls for which the Lauterbrunnen Valley is known freeze under a glistening layer of ice, while the traditional chalets and nearby alpine villages are covered in snow as if they had stepped out of a fairytale book.
Whether for a leisurely walk, extensive winter hikes, snowshoe tours or skiing. A visit to the region in and around Lauterbrunnen is also worthwhile in winter.
Walks in and around the village
A tour through the idyllic village with its famous church and the Staubbachfall Waterfall, the landmark of Lauterbrunnen. Or marvel at the snow-covered landscape and numerous other icy waterfalls along the White Lütschine River. Yes, Lauterbrunnen has a very special character in winter. Discover the valley of 72 waterfalls on a leisurely walk or a short winter hike.
Hiking and sledging on Sulwald
Do you want to be a little more active? Then of course you can also head up high. Take the PostBus or walk to Isenfluh and from there take a small aerial cableway to Sulwald. An idyllic place and the perfect starting point for snowshoe tours, winter hikes or a sleigh ride. Always with a view of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau triumvirate.
Skiing in Wengen or Mürren
Lauterbrunnen is also the perfect starting point for skiing or snowboarding. In just a few minutes you can reach Wengen by train or Grütschalp by aerial cableway - and thus two large ski areas in the Jungfrau Region. You can conquer the steepest piste between Schilthorn and Birg or the notorious Lauberhorn descent. Discover the Grindelwald-Wengen and Mürren-Schilthorn ski areas now.
Back from a walk, hike, sledging or skiing, you can warm up in one of the cosy restaurants and cafés in the village - and indulge in culinary delights.
