On an all-inclusive package at the BEST WESTERN Hotel Silberhorn in Wengen you can ski and snowboard ‘til you drop. But by way of a change, why not try your hand at sledging: the Eiger Run is the most spectacular sledge run in Switzerland.

Skiers and snowboarders can take their pick of 214 kilometres of slopes in the Jungfrau region. It’s worth the trip just for the backdrop: the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau mountains form a unique panorama – and the snow conditions at the moment are simply great!

Free W-LAN Internet access and guaranteed Euro exchange rate
The BEST WESTERN Hotel Silberhorn in Wengen is again offering attractive weekly rates for snow sports enthusiasts this winter. These include 7 nights’ accommodation, half board and individual ski passes according to the area in which you wish to have fun. What’s more, guests enjoy free access to the spa and wellness area plus complimentary W-LAN Internet access throughout the hotel. Foreign guests benefit from a guaranteed Euro exchange rate of CHF 1.40 to the Euro.

Anyone tempted to swap their skis or snowboard for a sledge by way of a change can prepare themselves for a thrilling experience: the Eiger Run along the foot of the famous mountain is regarded as the most spectacular sledge run in Switzerland. The route leads directly below the legendary Eiger North Face and has got the lot: sharp turns and hairpin bends ensure adrenaline rushes and unforgettable memories – even among those who are not so easily impressed. You can get to the Eiger Run during the day on the trains of the Wengernalpbahn railway.

Don’t miss the legendary cheese specialities!
Among the unforgettable memories that some will take away with them are the cheese specialities in the Berghaus Alpiglen along the way. Refreshment here is definitely in order since this is where the actual 700 metre run down to Brandegg begins. It hardly needs saying that a real sledger should also be properly equipped, that is to say with good footwear, snowproof clothing and ideally alcohol-free, even though the fortified coffee in the Berghaus may appear tempting. There will still be time for that later – in the Restaurant Silberhornstube for example, the perfect place for a leisurely end to a day’s sledging.
