Holiday Apartments to rent
by arnyt2
Can anyone recommend a mid range apartment to rent in Lauterbrunnen. Having just returned from staying in Interlaken and visiting the area which is absolutely beautiful are looking to stay in the area again next year but rather than a hotel are looking for an apartment. Hotel would be the last resort. Any suggestions. Thanks in advance. Tina

Absolutely no problem to get an apartment in the Lauterbrunnen (-Wengen-Mürren) or Grindelwald region. No need to book now, you can do this easily in March/April (for summer). A small flat with kitchen, bathroom and living room, 2 bedrooms for up to 4 persons may cost around CHF 500 a week incl bedsheets, maybe a little more for higher standards.

I have a nice apartment listed under my Lauterbrunnen tips. They have 4 apartments. Two one bedroom and two two bedroom. There are other apartments right next door - I can hunt for the web address if you need it - just email me. A good website for other options is http://www.myjungfrau.ch/en/welcome.cfm?

There are lots listed on the http://www.myjungfrau.ch/en/welcome.cfm? site
Lauterbrunnen is much quieter than Grindelwald and has great transportation links. I truly loved staying there.

Personally, I would book in late fall or early winter if your plans are firm. The place I stayed at books up early because it is a good value and who can resist that wonderful view!
Travel Tips for Lauterbrunnen
Just Another Walk in the Park? I Don't Think So!
by riorich55
The category here says what is the single most importance activity or site you would take someone who had never been here before. . . WOW I don't think that it is possible to just go with a single activity or thought so I will create several pages each with one thought per tip. On our first full day in Lauterbrunnen we spent the morning going to the top of Schilthorn for the views and the James Bond breakfast. We then took a leisurely walk through the Village of Murren on our way back down to Lauterbrunnen. Stopping off at our hotel for a little breather we then took a bus to Trummelbach Falls at the other end of the valley. Since it was still light enough and the trip really wasn't all that far back to Lauterbrunnen we hiked back into town and as these photos show ITS NOT JUST ANOTHER WALK IN THE PARK!!
Lauterbrunnen - Winteregg - Murren - Piz Gloria
by MrBill
Take the verincular railway from the Hauptbahnhof in Lauterbrunnen. Get there before 8:15 so you have time to buy your tickets for the first train ride up. You will have fewer people and you won't want to waste your time standing in lines while you are here.
The vernicular climbs from the town which is at 1000 m up to around 1600 where there is a plateau. From here you change trains for the train direction Murren (there is only one as this is the end station), but your luggage and skiis will be switched automatically, as the luggage car detaches and then if lifted by crane onto the waiting railcar. This is alone is witness to legendary Swiss efficiency.
Once on the train, get your camera ready for breathtaking views across the valley and of the Jungfraujoch across on the otherside. It is so large, that it is best viewed from the Murren side of the valley.
Stay on the train at Winteregg if you are headed to Piz Gloria, as you will need to get off in Murren and then transfer to the gondola that takes you up from Murren to the top of the Shilthorn. Piz Gloria and the Schilthorn were where The Spy Who Loved Me was shot. The view from up above is magnificient. However, I usually get off at the Winteregg for breakfast. I can reccommend the bacon, eggs and roesti potatoes. It is a great way to start the day.
From Murren or Wnteregg you will have ample opportunities for mainly intermediate skiing. The hills is not fantastic, but there is enough terrain to keep you from getting bored.
The Shilthorn has the best skiing opportunities, especially if you are a proficient off-piste skier. However, this is avalanche country, so don't go off-piste unless you know it is absolutely allowed and safe to do so.
Each year there is a race called the Inferno for experts and amateurs a like. I believe the course is about 7 km long and used to go all the way from the top of the Shilthorn down into the town of Lauterbrunnen. Snow conditions do not allow this any longer (I have only skied the whole way this past winter, normally there is very little snow below 1600m).
In any case, you will enjoy wonderful mountain panoramas and have enough skiing to tire you out.
Laundry, Internet and Lunch
by Maryimelda
There is a great little shop almost at the top of the hill on your right which is a laundry, internet and coffee shop all rolled into one. This was a real find for me as I was at that stage where I was sick of washing my clothes under the shower and would have given heaven and earth for a washing machine. What's more, it was located right next door to my hotel.
The first day I arrived, I stopped in for lunch and enjoyed a great bowl of soup with the proverbial crusty bread, which I followed up with a great coffee and home-made cookie. The next morning I took in my laundry and the very pleasant girl on duty asked me if I would like to leave it and she would do it for me for 25CHF. I know it sounds a lot, but I jumped at the chance to have my laundry done in real washing machine whilst I went out for the day. I returned at 6pm and it was all washed, dried and neatly folded. Well worth the money. I would have taken advantage of the Internet facility as well, only my hotel had free internet for guests.
Oh and by the way, you can book your hang gliding and related activities here as well. I didn't have the presence of mind to take a photo of the shop but I have found this photo which shows the building. It is the one with the red flag and is located one door on the lower side of the Hotel Restaurant Schuetzen.
Lauterbrunnen

Lauterbrunnen is one of the most scenic valleys I have encounterd in Switzerland.
I really appreciate its beauty though when I viewed it from the balcony of Wegen - the mountain village above Lauterbrunnen.
Winter View
by sandysmith
Having seen Lauterbrunnen in both winter and summer I'd be hard pressed to have a favourite between them. In summer the hiking options are more plentiful ands in winter the mountain peaks are clearer in the cold air. Any time the views are stupendous, I love both seasons!
