Besides the beautiful trail to Mürren, another reason for going today was checking out the new cable car from Stechelberg to Mürren, the steepest in the world.
It is really well done. The buildings are a nice mix of concrete and light wood. The cable car is so steep, that you arrive/depart from the ground station through the roof (literally). Some have compared it taking an elevator (slightly over the top, but I get their drift). The ride takes 4 minutes (ears pop) and now also gives a nice view over the valley floor and the steep wall.

Today was a real #MountainMonday for me. Walked from Grütschalp to Mürren in the Lauterbrunnen Valley.
It pretty much was the perfect day. Nice weather (a bit chilly in the shades but not too much), only a few (but nice) people on the trail, nothing else planned for the day (so could linger as much as I wanted).

The village of Mürren lies on a terrace above the steep rockfaces of Mirrenflue. The Lauterbrunnen Valley is very well known for its options for basejumping. Jumping down the Mirrenflue is one of the many places for that.

Pictures taken last summer: a day out in the Jungfrau Regionwith a sort of farewell visit to the little trains of the #Lauterbrunnen to #Mürren mountain railway: built in the 1960s, these lovely railcars, I was told, would soon be replaced by more modern units.
