Besides the beautiful trail to Mürren, another reason for going today was checking out the new cable car from Stechelberg to Mürren, the steepest in the world.

It is really well done. The buildings are a nice mix of concrete and light wood. The cable car is so steep, that you arrive/depart from the ground station through the roof (literally). Some have compared it taking an elevator (slightly over the top, but I get their drift). The ride takes 4 minutes (ears pop) and now also gives a nice view over the valley floor and the steep wall.

Today was a real #MountainMonday for me. Walked from Grütschalp to Mürren in the Lauterbrunnen Valley.

It pretty much was the perfect day. Nice weather (a bit chilly in the shades but not too much), only a few (but nice) people on the trail, nothing else planned for the day (so could linger as much as I wanted).

#ViaFerrata in #Mürren ends with this awesome rope bridge that spans between two cliffs at the height of ~200m above the ground. Massive steel cables support the whole structure. Despite the steel plates to walk on it's always a weird feeling to step on it.
My friend is posing in the back. The scale of the drop is visible in the valley on the right.
