Ride a cable car into the car-free village of Mürren, savor a traditional alpine fondue, then race down a moonlit slope on a rented sledge. This guided evening blends authentic Swiss cuisine with easy, safe night sledging beneath the Jungfrau peaks.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
A cable car slices up from the Lauterbrunnen Valley and drops you into clear, thin air; lights from Interlaken wink below as the massif of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau loom like patient giants. You step off in Mürren — a car-free perch of wooden chalets — and take the short funicular to Allmendhubel, where a mountain restaurant warms the bones with melted alpine cheese and crusty bread.
