Trümmelbach Falls & Wengen View Point Photography Workshop – 7 November 2026

Join us for an unforgettable photography workshop in the heart of the Jungfrau Region, one of Switzerland's most iconic alpine landscapes. This full-day experience combines the dramatic beauty of the Trümmelbach Falls with the breathtaking panoramic views from Wengen View Point, offering a unique opportunity to photograph powerful waterfalls, picturesque mountain villages and the legendary peaks of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau.

The day begins at the spectacular Trümmelbach Falls, Europe's largest subterranean glacial waterfalls, where millions of litres of meltwater from the surrounding glaciers have carved an extraordinary series of cascades inside the mountain. This unique location provides the perfect environment to learn long exposure photography, master challenging lighting conditions and create dynamic compositions.

In the afternoon, we will travel to the panoramic Wengen View Point, overlooking the beautiful Lauterbrunnen Valley. Surrounded by colourful autumn forests and some of the most famous mountains in the Swiss Alps, participants will explore a variety of compositions before concluding the workshop with a sunset photography session as the final light illuminates the surrounding peaks.
