Allmendhubel - Funicular

Allmendhubel  Murren  Funicular The Allmendhubel is a funicular train operated by the Schilthornbahn AG Company which runs from the village of Mürren to the high Alps meadows looking on the Piz Gloria and Jungfrau ranges. The small cable pulled car was originally constructed for farmers to carry goods up the steep hills and their harvest back down, but now is used for by local inhabitants valleys and for tourists to the idyllic Alpine setting.

At the top (1970 meters/6463 feet) the Allmendhubel Panoramic Restaurant offers meals with views of the Alps mountains. There is a large outdoor playground for children. In summer when the meadows bloom with color, the Allmendhubel Flower Trail is ideal for hikers. In the flowering season over 150 varieties of flowers can be found. The trail takes about 20 minutes and starts near the restaurant. Longer easy hikes can cover a range of territory with beautiful views. In winter the Allmendhubel is ideal for casual family skiing and sledding.
