Item Description

A 7-night stay in the Swiss Alps in Mürren looking across the Lauterbrunnen Valley at the Eiger, Monk, and Jungfrau mountains. This quiet, car-free town sits at 5450 ft with year-round activities to enjoy: hiking, paragliding, skiing, bicycling, and sightseeing to name a few. Reachable by train or car from the Zurich Airport, you'll enjoy the cool mountain air and beautiful views.

The Schilthorn and its revolving restaurant are just a gondola ride away. Grindelwald, Wengen, Kleine Scheidegg and the Jungfraujoch are all accessible by train and gondola from Mürren. The Berner Oberland is at your doorstep. The 2025 Womens Euro Soccer Tournament happens in July 2025. Winter Skiing is excellent at all of the surrounding resorts.

This is a one-bedroom apartment. Dates can be arranged with the owners and additional rooms are available at your expense. There are no additional fees (i.e. no cleaning fee).

The bidder is responsible for transport to Mürren either by train or the Schilthornbahn Gondola from Stechelberg. Chalet Bobs is closer to the Schilthornbahn. If arriving by car, park at the gondola base station and take the Schilthornbahn up to Mürren.

The offer is good for two years unless re-negotiated separately with Chalet Bobs. All pictures of the apartment are available at www.chaletbobs.com and of the Schilthorn at https://schilthorn.ch/

Note that Mürren is a car-free town. Expect to walk everywhere, including to the grocery store after you arrive in Murren.  Rick Steves brings travelers here and to the mountain farm village of Gimmelwald a short distance below.

Before you bid, please read our General Terms and Conditions below.
