LAUTERBRUNNEN is famous because it is in a valley surrounded by steep high cliffs with waterfalls pouring down hundreds of meters. On top of the western cliff is the village Mürren that only can be reached by cable car. On the eastern mountain slope is the village Wengen, that only can be reached by a cogwheel train that connects Lauterbrunnen with Wengen and further on to Kleine Scheidegg and so more further to Grindelwald. In Wengen there is also a cable car to the top of the Männlichen. SCHILDHORN: From Lauterbrunnen and Mürren there is a cable car going up to the mountain named Schildhorn. A restaurant and platform at 2970m that has some fame as it was the décor of an older James Bond movie. (On her majesty’s secret service with George Lazenby's only appearance as 007 in 1969) TRUMMELBACH FALLS: Very famous are the Trummelbach Falls in Lauterbrunnen. (You can go there by bus from Lauterbrunnen station or by car). These are spectacular water falls that did cut out caves in the rocks over millions of years. TIP: You can also go there by bad weather and rain!

amazing valley of 72 waterfalls. Hike from Lauterbrunnen village to Stechelberg (stop and walk behind the main Falls) take a gondola hop to Mürren, one of the most picturesque Swiss villages and hike to Grütchalp (dont forget to look back at the amazing views of the Eiger, Monch and Jungfrau) gondola back to Lauterbrunnen

You can go to Mürren from Lauterbrunnen or from Stechelberg by cablecar or by foot to Gimmelwald. You can hike further upwards for hours close to the James Bond ski slopes.

Lauterbrunnen Valley is by far one of the most popular destinations in Switzerland, featuring glacial waterfalls, hiking trails, ski slopes, and quaint villages. This stunning destination is the gateway to the Jungfrau Region and it’s often referred to as The Valley Of 72 Waterfalls.

Against the mighty backdrop of the Bernese Alps lies the small village of Lauterbrunnen. With its whitewashed church and traditional gabled houses, it is a pretty village, but Switzerland has plenty of those. The unique feature gives Lauterbrunnen two waterfalls. Clearly visible is the Staubbach waterfall, with a depth of almost 300 meters the highest free-falling waterfall in Switzerland. This natural spectacle already fascinated Goethe, who used the waterfall as inspiration for his poem Gesang der Geister über den Wassern. Visitors can also view the Staubbach Falls from behind via a path carved into the rock during the summer months, as well as enjoy the view of the valley. But there is another attraction, but this one is not directly visible from Lauterbrunnen. The Trümmelbach Falls. They are located inside the mountain. The Trümmelbach, which drains the glacier walls of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau mountains, has formed a gorge in the rock between Lauterbrunnen and Stechelberg. Over ten waterfalls, some with a drop height of 140 meters, the water masses plunge here between the rock flanks into the depths. A system of stairs and tunnels makes the Trümmelbach Falls accessible to visitors. 25minutes Train ride from Heidi`s Train Station
