Another brilliant blue sky day enticed us back to the mountains. This time we chose to go back Interlaken, Lauterbrunnen and up with the Gondola to Grütschalp and along on the little mountain train to Murren. This is our 4th time in Murren and the view is just as spectacular every time. Here are photos from the centre of the town one looking down the street and the other looking up.
After a quick look in a souvenir shop we set off down the sealed road to Gimmelwald. The cable car to Shilthorn passed over our heads.
I have an interest in the ways that the Swiss stack their wood - here are two more examples
From Gimmelwald the track is gravel and steep. You arrive at a bridge at the bottom of the valley and think you are close to Stechelberg but the track winds back up past lovely waterfalls before descending back down to the village and the waiting Postbus. We decided to continue walking towards Lauterbrunnen enjoying the scenery on the way.
Beautiful old house near Stegmatte. We caught the bus from Trummelbach back to Lauterbrunnen and the very full train back to Interlaken.
From Interlaken to Spiez and on to Thun where we had a well deserved coffee break before the bus trip up to Heiligenschwendi and Goldiwil. Looks like there will not be a good sunset tonight. Yeah I won't be tempted to climb back up the hill to my vantage point!
