Photographer’s Note
I am back from Switzerland & Paris. Wengen in located high in the Bern Oberland Kanton, at 1276m in the mountains. A very small village where tourist stop by mainly for skiing in the alps and hicking. I did 2-3 hiking in the high mountains and it was Amazing. Wengen lodge is located at the very bottom of the village, and steppy streets make it hard to reach with a backpack. It's looks like a old hauted house, but we were in dead season, so we were only 3 person in the whole hostel. Cheap Price, tranquillity and lots of space makes it great. The hostel is opened only since June 2003. I signed the guestbook. The doors are never locked up there & the hostel is slowly sliding down the mountain... so every floor inside is inclinated. Makes its weird place! the view is amazing. Behind we can see the Jungfrau far away. Did a lot of hicking. Marvelous pictures to come....

Belle composition, j'aurais juste un peu recadré et enlevé un peu du ciel; car c'est très haut comme photo. Sinon les couleurs sont belles. Bravo !

I like the backpackers lodge here, but there is just one thing, I think the mountains are overexposed and the roofing on the left is a bit disturbing, but apart from that it looks really good, the building reminds me a a ghost house.
Thanks for sharing
