Winter holidays in the car-free mountain village below the Schilthorn

New perspectives in Mürren

Three winter sports enthusiasts are standing on the ski slope in the Mürren–Schilthorn ski area, enjoying the view of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau. The majestic mountain backdrop and the snow-covered slope create a stunning alpine scene.

Perched high above the Lauterbrunnen Valley, Mürren is small, welcoming and car-free. In the morning, the slopes are just a few steps away; at lunchtime, you take in the view from the Schilthorn; and in the evening, a cosy mountain inn awaits. Whether it's a long weekend or a full week's holiday, stay a little longer and see Mürren from a whole new perspective.

Stechelberg-Mürren cable car

Ride the world's steepest cable car

Getting here is an adventure in itself: from Stechelberg, the world's steepest cable car carries you up to Mürren. With a gradient of up to 159.4 per cent, the cabin glides up the rock face as the Lauterbrunnen Valley opens up beneath you. A start to your winter holiday you won't forget in a hurry.

Slopes with a view of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau

From the Schilthorn at 2970 m, you ski all the way down to the village. Wide slopes for relaxed turns, steep sections for those who want a challenge, and a panorama that makes you stop again and again. If you're up for it, follow in the tracks of the Inferno, Mürren's legendary ski race.
