Details
Experience this unique via ferrata during which you will descend from the beautiful mountain village of Mürren. Take in the panoramic view of the surrounding Alps while you climb down steep walls, and cross deep gorges, feeling like a special agent in a Hollywood movie.
Tour programme- Preparation:
We meet at the Intersport Mürren store at the time specified on your booking confirmation. Here, you will receive the necessary equipment for your via ferrata journey. You will also be given some instructions on the proper use of your equipment as well as a detailed safety briefing. After that, we're ready to go!
- Tour:
The start of the tour is fairly easy, but we will soon reach the 'Hammerecke' where you will be treated to spectacular views of the steep Mürrenfluh wall beneath your feet. We will continue our tour past the base jumping platform until we reach the zip line with which we will glide across to the other side of the mountain wall. Finally, we cross the suspension bridge which takes us right over the 400m steep Mürrenbach gorge to our final destination of Gimmelwald.
- Arrival:
The tour ends in Gimmelwald, from where we either take the cable car back up to Mürren, or down to Stechelberg.

Fantastic experience! The shop got us all fitted with boots and proper equipment. Our guide Lewis was professional, personable and took such good care of us - especially focusing on the teenagers that had a more difficult time. Would recommend this guided trip to anyone wanting to do this via Ferrara!
