The lower slopes are a good mix of sunny blues and reds with the Kandahar black providing a real challenge – although slightly less so now it is groomed every night as gone are the big bumps. These are below the treeline so are great in bad weather, but the snowsure higher slopes can close or be fairly inhospitable in bad weather.
There is a small beginner area with a magic carpet and rope tow in the village, on a sunny slope by the Jungfrau Hotel, right next to the excellent Swiss Ski School and it is ideal for first timers. Up the hill lie the main nursery slopes at Allmendhubel, up the funicular. These are a little on the steep side, but are secluded and quiet. From there, you have easy blue runs to graduate to in each sector.
The Engetal blue below Birg is a good easy cruise and it always has great snow. Lower down, the best easy cruising run on the lower slopes is the north-facing blue down to Winteregg – which is now fully equipped with snowmaking. For skiers looking for fast turns and steeper pitches, the Finel and Gimmeln reds off the Schiltgrat chair are the runs to hit. A day trip or two to Wengen or Grindelwald is also well worth it.
The steep but now groomed black run from the top of the Schilthorn is a must for any advanced skier. There are also several steep, groomed (new in 2018 was the 88% Direttissima black) and mogul runs at Birg, as well as some great off piste from the Schiltgrat ridge, where steep and shady routes drop down into the Blumental bowl. The potential for ski touring or more adventurous runs from the Schilthorn is almost limitless, but a guide is recommended for these tough routes.
You can’t fail to be struck by Mürren’s beauty and tranquillity. Paths and narrow lanes weave between little wooden chalets and a handful of bigger hotel buildings – all normally blanketed by snow. Mürren’s traffic-free status has been somewhat eroded but even Wengen seems busy by comparison.
Mürren is perfect for a quiet family holiday, not least because of the relaxed, safe and snowy car-free village, but also the off slope facilities. The sports centre has been improved significantly in the past few years, whilst ice skating and curling remain popular on the ice rink. The several tobogganing routes are a major attraction, with sled hire available from all hire shops.
Après ski is mellow in Mürren, but the Gondelbar outside the Jungfrau is a great place to grab a drink at the end of a sunny ski day, or head to the cosy Jägerstübli bar in the Bellevue Hotel if the snow is falling. Later on head out to the remodelled Tächi Bar in the Hotel Eiger, which gets lively at weekends and particularly during the week of the Inferno Race.
Each area in the Jungfrau region, including the separate Grindelwald areas, employ separate opening and closing dates:
Individual area tickets are no longer available – instead, one lift pass now covers all Jungfrau resorts of Grindelwald, Wengen and Mürren

Winter returns to Switzerland, especially in the west of the country that gets its first really dump of the season (!)
Unsettled weather moves in over the course of this week, slowly dragging the freezing line down from 3,000m to closer to 2,000m. This will then see snow falling on elevations above this, including as much as 130cm possible (one hundred and thirty centimetres) on Wednesday alone. All told, midweek snowfall will bring around 2m to most areas above 2,000m in the west and southwest of the region.
A brief pause in the idiocy then moves in on Friday, before a number bank of snow arrive son Saturday; this will see temperatures plummet as the freezing line drops down to 500m at times, and another foot of snow is possible, this time falling across most elevations. Eastern regions of Switzerland will see this snow, too, with around a foot-and-a-half falling across most elevations as the freezing line drops.
This unsettled and snowy weather will continue to fall as the new week begins.
Our Reps service in Mürren has now concluded for the season; thank you to all our Reps who helped Members and non-Members alike discover better skiing! We look forward to seeing you all in in resort next season.
