Helicopter flight in the mountains...

We took a ride in a helicopter (see BOHAG Helcopters) from Männlichen around the mountains of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau and over the glacier. We even landed on the top of a peak (where you see the track cross at the bottom) which was quite spectacular.

Sledging to Wengen

We went sledging from Wengernalp (bottom of map) to Wengen (top of map) down the Fox Run trail ... It was a lot of fun with a max speed of 36 MPH (58 KPH) being reached on one section !!! Of course the sat image doesn't show the snow :-(
