The Schilthorn is a majestic summit in the Jungfrau Region, high above the alpine village Mürren. Positioned at an impressive 2,970 metres (9,740 feet), this alpine mountain overlooks the valley of Lauterbrunnen and provides some of the most stunning views of the region. It's famous for appearing in the in the 1969 James Bond movie "On Her Majesty's Secret Service".

Note: The Schilthorn cable cars are under construction in 2023 and some attractions may have limited access.

You can reach this peak with a series of cable cars starting in the Lauterbrunnen valley. These cable cars run all October, so this is a good choice for an autumn visit when other attractions may be closed.

At the top, there is a panorama terrace and short stroll on the peak. There are trails leading down from the peak, but they are quite difficult and likely covered in snow in October. Make sure to check the webcams before planning your visit.

As part of your visit, make sure to stop at the Birg middle station to experience the Thrill Walk with metal walkways built into the side of the mountain. Kids will love it.
