Wengen: Männlichen - Bergstation Sesselbahn Männlichen
Männlichen is best known in the Bernese Oberland for its ridge between the Lauterbrunnen and Grindelwald valleys. Its summit reaches 2,343 metres, forming part of the Bernese Alps opposite the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau massif. The mountain is a central interchange in the Jungfrau ski region: cableways rise from Wengen and Grindelwald, while a chairlift serves the higher slopes. In summer, the short Royal Walk leads from the upper station to the summit, and longer paths continue towards Kleine Scheidegg and Alpine pastures. Berghaus Männlichen, beside the lift area, continues the region’s tradition of mountain hospitality and provides a base for excursions in high terrain.

This Bernese Oberland resort lies beneath the Jungfrau massif, with routes leading towards Kleine Scheidegg and the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau peaks. The Wengernalp Railway links Wengen with Lauterbrunnen and Kleine Scheidegg, while the annual Lauberhorn downhill race makes the area a fixture on the Alpine skiing calendar.

Built around the Aare River and routes across the Swiss Plateau, Bern grew into a canton connecting the federal capital with the Bernese Oberland. Its territory extends from Jura foothills and farmland through the Aare valley to the high Alps around the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau. The city of Bern, Switzerland’s federal capital, preserves an Old Town inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List, while Thun and Interlaken lead towards Lakes Thun and Brienz. Urban institutions, dairy farming and established alpine resorts give the canton a notably broad Swiss character.

Switzerland stretches from the Jura Mountains in the northwest to the Alps in the south, encompassing a central plateau of cities, farms and lakes. The Rhine rises in the Swiss Alps, while Lake Geneva forms part of the country’s southwestern border. Zürich, Geneva and Basel are major urban centres, yet mountain railways and passes remain central to how many regions are experienced. Four national languages—German, French, Italian and Romansh—reflect Switzerland’s distinct cantonal identities. The Matterhorn above Zermatt is among Europe’s most recognisable peaks, and the 1291 Federal Charter is closely associated with the country’s founding tradition.
