“On our innkeeper’s recommendation, we booked the 07:40 cable car from Mürren to the Schilthorn, as well as an 08:00 brunch reservation at Piz Gloria. The views were breathtaking, and the brunch buffet offered plenty of choice. We had 90 minutes at our table, which gave us plenty of time to enjoy the changing scenery from the revolving restaurant. We also explored the other viewing areas and enjoyed the James Bond film memorabilia. Our next stop was Birg, where we took in the Skyline View and watched the more adventurous visitors tackle the Thrill Walk. Our final stop was Mürren, before we walked back to Gimmelwald. It was a great alternative and less expensive than the Jungfrau experience.”
