Our location and facilities

Chalet Bergheim serves as a perfect mountain base, allowing students to explore Wengen and beyond. Staffed by two ISZL members, it offers a setting to build friendships, experience adventure, and bring joy to the ISZL learning experience.

About Chalet Bergheim

The chalet accommodates up to 100 students and staff for activities such as alpine field studies, ski competitions, and music rehearsals. It enriches the ISZL learning experience through trips like the Duke of Edinburgh International Award or Physics in the Mountains. Students work both indoors and outdoors in the natural surroundings.

About Wengen

Wengen is a car-free holiday resort situated at 1,274 metres on a sunny, south-facing balcony, 400 metres above Lauterbrunnen. With traditional timber houses, chalets, and hotels from the Belle Époque era, it retains the charm of a picture-postcard mountain village.

How to get here

The area has been car-free since 1893, reachable by train from Lauterbrunnen. The Jungfrau Region, situated between Lake Brienz and Thun, includes famous mountains like Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau. Trains run every 30 minutes from Lauterbrunnen.
