Mürren
A car-free village on a cliff edge at 1,638 m, facing the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau. It is the most popular base in the Lauterbrunnen Valley for accommodation and hiking.
Mürren is built on a cliff terrace about 800 m above the west side of the Lauterbrunnen Valley, at an altitude of 1,638 m. Motor vehicles are banned, and wooden inns line the cliff edge, with nearly every window facing the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau. In summer, take the cable car up to Allmendhubel and walk the gentle flower trail or the Northface Trail, or walk about 40 minutes down to Gimmelwald. In winter it is a ski resort. Getting there: from Lauterbrunnen, take a cable car to Grütschalp and change to a scenic mini train, about 30 minutes in total. Alternatively, take the cable car up from Stechelberg, and continue by cable car to Schilthorn. The village has a supermarket and restaurants. Staying overnight lets you watch the alpenglow on the mountains.
