Description

At the starting point of the hike, head towards Allmendhubel. Up to this intermediate destination, the route is also called Mountain View Trail, probably as a convenience for English-speaking tourists. After a short stretch on pastureland, turn right onto a path. Now follows a longer ascent through forest and alpine meadows. Suddenly, you reach the Bletschenalp. From here, a ridgeway-like section follows. Alongside views of Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau, there are views of countless mountain peaks such as the Mittags- and Breithorn or the mid-station Birg of the Schilthorn cable car. On the other side of the Lauterbrunnen valley, the peaks Lauberhorn, Tschuggen and Männlichen can be seen. Below, the holiday resort Wengen, embedded in a hollow, can be spotted. The Faulhorn, the Schynige Platte and the Augstmatthorn are also visible. After a short steeper ascent, turn left at the Hohlücke signpost towards Allmendhubel. Here, children enjoy the large adventure playground. A panorama board makes it easier to name the numerous peaks. The Allmendhubelbahn offers a shortcut to Mürren. The next intermediate destination is the BLM station Mürren; also note the railway symbol on the signposts. The route alternates between steeper and less steep sections. The additional note Panoramaweg helps to find the right path in the dense hiking trail network. The last section from Mürren to Grütschalp is easy to walk. Signposted as a hiking trail, it offers an alternative for a short and relaxed hike.
