What to do in Mürren Bern Switzerland

Life here follows the weather and the rhythm of the cable cars. Days in Mürren begin with the clang of cowbells and the sight of cloud banks lifting off the Lauterbrunnen valley floor. Without private cars, the pace slows immediately to foot speed. Travellers come to lace up boots, ride lifts to high ridges, and spend quiet afternoons on wood balconies staring at the massive trio of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau.
