Guest access
Getting Here:

You can reach Mürren by:

Train via Lauterbrunnen, then continue with the BLM (Berner Oberland Railway)
Car or bus to Stechelberg, then take the Schilthornbahn (cable car) directly to Mürren.

Recommendation:

We recommend taking the Schilthornbahn – it’s comfortable, quick, and offers stunning scenic views. There is a large parking lot and a bus stop right at the valley station in Stechelberg.
The BLM is only partially operational in summer 2026.
