The mountains simply don't get any better! It's a tiny little village (350 permanent residents) and is thankfully car-free, with just a few transport trucks and farmer's vehicles in town. It's perched right on the edge of a 3000 cliff - you have to take a cablecar to get there - and is circled by the kind of mountain panorama you only dream about. With all of this, it's the best hiking destination in the Alps, surrounded by wildflowers, bell-ringing cows, waterfalls, and quiet trails, and is also a great base for relaxing and soaking in the ambiance and mountain scenery. Murren is fairy-tale Switzerland come to life, and you won't find a better combination of alpine scenery, mountain culture, and breathtaking scenic activities.
