So what's it like?
A pretty ski village nestled in a stunning Alpine valley
The pretty Lauterbrunnen ski resort is at the head of a gorge of waterfalls, below Wengen and Mürren. From Lauterbrunnen it is possible to get the train to the three main ski resorts of the Jungfrau ski area, Wengen, Grindelwald and Murren. You can even return to the village from Murren on skis, via the longest run in the area, 15km from the Schilthorn to Lauterbrunnen.
