Happy in Wengen

I sometimes wonder what I would be doing if I had not found Wengen,
I found this little village quite by accident and I am amazed every day how clean and beautiful it really is
That is why my best mate from back Home in Wales, Brian Kinsey wants to keep visiting it is a little piece of heaven in the Allgäu Alpland
Where the people are so friendly and polite,and you feel safe and at the same time you are not far from the Regional metropole of Kempten or the Capital of Munich,Wander in the mountains in Summer or sking in Winter.

Great Alpsee

Kempten is reputed to be the oldest city in Germany and was a stronghold for the Romans and of course we have the fairy castle of Neuschwanstein not very far away on the border of Austria set in an Idylic area and built by King Ludwig 11. Who was a mesmorising figure who has prompted many articles to be written about him,his friendship with Richard Wagner and his eccentric ideas which I find to be of utter brilliance.The King of Bavaria who had the vision to build so many Castles of extreme beauty which are visited by Thousands of tourists every day.

Neuschwanstein

I can recommend that everyone visits Germany,Come to Allgäu and enjoy the friendly atmosphere,great cooking and the sights that I have shown you here

Went for a 3 hour walk today and took loads of Photos,a 3hour walk is not much but is a marathon when your not fit,
Just got to figure out how to get the photos on here,but it will be worth the wait

Ingrid is looking a bit Devilish

And having a great evening with Maria

Fasching is of course a great Carnival time lots of drinking and shows

2009-02-26T20:51:00.003+01:00

So fasching is gone for another year.

We ran out of Aspirin.

The ladies of the village put on another great evening of entertainment.

A great picture of Henrik Alandt trying to scare us all.

I am looking a bit worse for wear but I am really great after a Bloody Mary.

On August 31st 2008 we have the Alphorn treff once again in Wengen.

The last time it was held in 1998 we had 10000 visitors to the village to see

around 200 Alphorn Bläsers perform together on a beautifull summer day.

See the small picture above.

All the Gästetten (Pubs) were full and quickly sold out the beer and food.

We expect many guests once again this year.

Welcome to my Wengen Blog .
The village is still in deep shock over the sad occurances just before Christmas where two residents were killed whilst travelling to work.
Even sadder is that they are both from the same family and young people, we cannot imagine the pain that has been endured over the so called festive season,by the families involved and our thoughts are with them in their darkest moments
Many village activities have been cancelled including Fasching.
I will keep this report short and will report further, later on regarding further developments

Winter in Wengen
We have just got our first snow of the year,looks like a white Christmas.
The Gasthaus Engel is now under new management.
The road works and improvements to the river are now complete and the village is greatly improved
I will be adding some 2007 Winter photographs soon
So until my next post Ade

Thanks to Brian And Caroline for letting me use their photographs on the blog they make great Bavarian 's don't you think
Anyway today we have snow,maybe the last snow of the Winter (I hope )
It is just about miday here and the village is bustling.People getting their last minute shopping done at Bäckerei Wirth the local Baker,clearing the last remnants of snow and getting ready for a relaxing weekend,thats how it is here in Wengen.
You can visit us any time there are Ferienwohnung (holiday flats ) at very good rates here,and we are central to all the nice places to visit when you come to Bavaria.
There is also Rednex RanchWhere you may be able to get in a bit of horse riding when you visit.
Overnight accomodation is available at Ferienhof Socher in a comfortable flat within a 300 year old farmhouse at very reasonable rates. I will be mentioning other places to stay in future posts.
So what are you waiting for get on down here to Wonderful WENGEN

Welcome to Fasching inWengen.

Wengen,
I have added a few things since the last post, a couple of photographs,a few links etc.
It is now spring here and the weather is changable, at the moment it is overcast and cold but as you see from the photos we do tend get a lot of snow here .
The village has a population of around 500 and mostly agricultural and forestry work is carried out in the vicinity.
We are close to Kempten one of the oldest cities in Germany. It was a roman settlement and remains of the roman city can be viewed there.
The town of Obertsdorf famous for its world championship ski jumps lay about 50 km. away on the Austrian border,and the picturebook Bavarian castle of Neuschwanstein and its beautiful mountains are also only 50 km. away.
There are so many beautiful wander ways here and weekends many people come here and walk to the nearby Alm Wenger Egg, or on the Karl Hirnbein Weg. Many cyclists travel to and through Wengen.
There are good rail and bus links from Kempten to Munich,Stuttgart and major cities.
From Friedrichshafen ( Bodensee ) there are regular flights to and from London Stansted with Ryan Air for prices as low as €0,01 plus tax so we are easy to reach here in Allgau.
the Bodensee region ,Switzerland and Austria are all within easy reach.So there is no better place to come to experience Bavaria at its best.Here to Wengen

Wengen,
a small village nestled in a beautiful valley,one of many beautiful vallies in the region where the brook runs through it ,the birds are always singing the village shop sells the best bread for miles around. and the beer is not bad as well.Here everybody knows everybody else, the people are friendly and there is generally a wonderful community spirit here.
There is a local brass band , it plays at all the major occasions that transpire here.The village hall the focal point of the villiage, events here are always well attended. I am an outsider here although I have lived in the village for a number of years, I have many good friends here and shall in future posts be giving readers an insight of what is on offer here in Wengen.
It is in fact my home from home.Wengen
