The journey begins with the world's longest aerial cableway system, climbing in four stages from the valley to the Schilthorn summit. This engineering marvel is complemented by a network of modern chairlifts and surface lifts that provide access to slopes at all elevations. The system's design allows skiers to maximize their vertical descent, with the possibility of 1,300-meter runs from summit to valley. Each lift offers increasingly spectacular views, making the ascent as memorable as the descent.

Perched on a mountain terrace above the Lauterbrunnen Valley, Mürren provides a peaceful, car-free base for exploring the Schilthorn's terrain. The resort is accessed by mountain railway and cable car, adding to its secluded ambiance. This unique setting places visitors in the heart of the Bernese Oberland, surrounded by some of Switzerland's most iconic peaks. The journey from Interlaken takes just over an hour, combining efficient Swiss transport with the romance of ascending into a traditional alpine village where narrow lanes are traced by ski tracks rather than tire marks.

Season Info

The winter season at Schilthorn-Mürren typically runs from December through April, with the high altitude ensuring reliable snow conditions throughout. The north-facing aspects of many runs help preserve snow quality, particularly on the challenging upper mountain sections. Early winter often brings powder conditions above Mürren, while spring offers extended daylight hours for exploring the entire ski area. The resort's elevation and exposure create a particularly long season on the glacier-like upper slopes.
