Nightlife

Wengen has only one disco, the popular Disco Tiffany. Set in the cellar of the Hotel Silberhorn (tel. 033/856-69-69), near the arrival point for the cog-railway cars from Lauterbrunnen, it's small, crowded, and painted in tones of navy blue and black. Look for nightly openings between mid-December and early April, and openings on Friday and Saturday nights the rest of the year. No cover; show up after 10:30pm.

More reliable and prevalent than discos in Wengen are the resort's hard-drinking bars and sudsy pubs. The two wildest are the Tanne Bar, Dorfstrasse (no phone), across the street from the Sunstar Hotel; and Sina's Pub, Dorfstrasse (tel. 033/855-31-72), where karaoke mics and monitors are pulled out from storage whenever things begin to look dull. An enduring favorite is the Pickel Bar, in the Hotel Eiger (tel. 033/856-05-05). Set in a trapezoidal room lined with thick unfinished planks and stout timbers, it's illuminated with candlelight and can take all the punishment a rowdy core of skiers can dish out.
