Would you like to conquer the steepest ski slope? Do you fancy a winter hike through snow-covered landscapes? Would you like to follow in the footsteps of James Bond? Or would you prefer a snowball fight? Either way, you'll find what you're looking for in Mürren.
On the trail of James Bond
"On Her Majesty's Secret Service", perhaps the best Bond film of all time, is set on the Schilthorn in 1969 - at almost 3,000 metres above sea level. The 360-degree revolving restaurant Piz Gloria owes its name to the film. In Spy World, the interactive exhibition about the film, you can immerse yourself in the filming process on a tour.
Thrills and breathtaking views. That's what you get on the First Cliff Walk. The steel construction on Birg, the intermediate station of the Schilthorn cableway, leads along the cliff and ends with a 45-metre-long footbridge out into the void. Wow!
Spectacular ski and toboggan runs
The Mürren-Schilthorn ski area has 13 lifts and a total of 56 kilometres of pistes. These lead from the village up to the summit of the Schilthorn at 2970 metres above sea level - making the ski area the highest in the Bernese Oberland. Due to the guaranteed snow, it usually remains open until the end of April. Here you can tackle the steepest piste in the region. The Direttissima (no. 9) has a gradient of 88 per cent. If you need even more action, you can let off steam in the Skyline Snowpark. Or how about a ride down a ski cross course? Meanwhile, on Mürren's local mountain, the Allmendhubel, Lilly's magical Kidsslope will make children's eyes light up. You can also enjoy spectacular views of the snow-covered peaks of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau on a sledge. On the Apollo Run, a rapid descent from Schiltgrat to Mürren. Or on the bob sled run from Allmendhubel to Mürren, which is ideal for beginners.
Travelling on foot
Discover the unspoilt beauty of the snow-covered landscape in the area around Mürren while snowshoeing and winter hiking. Off the beaten track, snowshoes allow you to immerse yourself in unspoilt nature and offer a unique winter experience. The more leisurely winter hiking trails lead through snow-covered forests to picturesque viewpoints.
On the ice
The Alpine Sports Centre in Mürren is the ideal meeting place for families, friends and winter sports enthusiasts. Here you can literally get out on the ice. Surrounded by majestic Alpine peaks, you can do your laps on ice skates. Want to play a game of curling? Then six outdoor and three indoor rinks are waiting for you. Are you thirsty or a little hungry? You can get refreshments at any time in the Time Out Bistro.
A virtual snowball fight
Fancy a snowball fight, but the weather is bad or - even worse - there's no snow? Then head to the sports centre for Virtual Mürren Fun. With up to four players, two teams can compete against each other, immerse themselves in a magical winter landscape and experience a snowball fight of a special kind.
After an excursion to the Schilthorn, a ski or toboggan run, a winter hike or snowshoe tour, you can enjoy a bite to eat or a fine mulled wine in the idyllic mountain village of Mürren. Click here for the offers.
