Day 12 – Schilthorn

Here is a morning view across the valley, looking toward the Eiger Trail that we hiked the previous afternoon.

Below is a image of Mürren as we walk toward the other end of the village.

Based on these clear views, we had high hopes for our planned hike today, which was to take the Schilthornbahn cableway up to Birg, and from there hike up to the summit of Schilthorn. Unfortunately, while it was clear toward the Eiger, it was not not clear in the other direction toward the Schilthorn. Here is the view upon reaching Birg.

As we were riding the cable car up, it seemed that we entered the cloud just before reaching Birg, so we changed our plans a bit, and tried hiking down a bit, hoping to still get some nice valley views once we got below the cloud.

As we approached Grauseewli, we could start to see we were getting to the bottom of the cloud.

Here is a nice view from a cliff above Grauseewli, where you can start to get a nice view of the valley, and can imagine what it must be like under clear skies.

We stopped for lunch at the edge of the lake before hiking back up to Birg.

Since we came all this way, we decided to take the cable car up to the top of Schilthorn, even though the views aren’t going to be very good. Once up to the top, I started hiking down a bit, to see what our climb might have been like. The ridge off the west side of the Schilthorn summit looks a little spooky in the clouds, not being able to see much of the vertical drop off on either side.

This part made me a bit nervous, where walking down the rocks got steeper and you couldn’t see very far ahead. The little section of cable to hold on to was a helpful guide.

Once down on the next ridge a bit lower, you can see a bit of the drop off through the clouds.

Here’s the view off the other side.

I didn’t venture out more than about 400 meters due to the lack of views, and then headed back up. It’s probably good that we didn’t bother hiking up here, since there wouldn’t have been much reward for the effort.

Back at the top, we watched as construction workers were pouring concrete foundations for an expansion to the building for a new exhibit. Something so simple becomes much more challenging when working so high up, with no ability to drive trucks to the site, and having to work on a small and steep slope for a job site. Just watching them mix concrete on site, bag by bag, and lifting the mix up by crane to pour into the forms was interesting. We actually rode the gondola up with a pallet of cement bags, and we now know what they were for.

We then visited the 007 James Bond museum, which mainly features the film On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, which was filmed on the Shilthorn in 1969.
