Schilthorn

Home Up Switzerland Grindelwald Alpine Hiking Jungfrau Murren Schilthorn Switzerland 1977

 

Schilthorn is the mountain above Murren. We took a cable car up the mountain and hiked down. At the top of the mountain is a restaurant called Piz Gloria - where James Bond's "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" was filmed.

Some of our pictures look cloudy since our first trip up to the Schilthorn was completely fogged in.  This was the day we chose to hike down.

We saw warnings about hiking down in inappropriate footwear but we hiked down anyway...
