Up above Wengen at about 1500 metres is a spot called Allmend. There’s a restaurant here, and a railway halt.

Of course the restaurant is closed, and the trains aren’t running, so the only way to get here is on foot.

It’s noticeably colder up here, with snow still on the ground in places. The flowers in the meadow are a few weeks behind the ones in the village.

We amble back through the forest. It’s a nice walk of about 8 kilometres.
