Mürren Schilthorn
Ascending to 2,970 meters above sea level, Schilthorn-Mürren presents one of Switzerland's most dramatic skiing experiences. Made famous by James Bond's "On Her Majesty's Secret Service," this car-free resort combines cinematic views with exceptional skiing opportunities. From the revolving Piz Gloria restaurant at the summit, skiers are treated to a 360-degree panorama of over 200 peaks, including the legendary Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau. The resort's 54 kilometers of slopes cascade down through varied terrain, offering everything from gentle cruising runs to challenging black pistes.

From its dramatic position at the Birg station, this webcam captures breathtaking views of the surrounding alpine terrain and the resort's challenging upper mountain runs.
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.

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.
