Description The name "Lauter Brunnen" ("many fountains") hints at the majesty of the local scenery. There are 72 waterfalls in the valley, the most famous of which are the Staubbach Falls. These waterfalls cascade down from a 300-meter-high cliff and are one of the highest free-falling waterfalls in Europe. In 1779, German writer Goethe visited the Lauterbrunnen Valley and was inspired by these waterfalls, which led him to write the famous poem "Spirit song over the waters (Gesang der Geister über den Wassern)". Another deafening natural wonder is the Trümmelbach Falls. It is located in the "Black Monk" mountain, hidden behind a majestic rock mass, where 20,000 liters of water per second flow down from a height of more than 200 meters along ten glacial waterfalls. It can only be seen in summer by taking the tunnel lift in the mountain. Winter The mountain railway provides quick and easy access to the vast ski areas of Wengen-Kleine Scheidegg and Mürren-Schilthorn. The Jungfrau region has 45 transport systems, a total of 213 kilometers of ski slopes, many playgrounds, 100 kilometers of winter hiking trails and 50 kilometers of toboggan runs. The Lauterbrunnen valley also has many cross-country ski trails. Summer The small town of Lauterbrunnen (795 meters above sea level) in the valley is the starting point for the Jungfrau region and many exciting travel destinations. A rack railway connects Lauterbrunnen with Wengen and Kleine Scheidegg. Wengen is located on the east side of the Lauterbrunnen valley and has sunny slopes; Kleine Scheidegg is a station where passengers change to the train to the Jungfraujoch. From Lauterbrunnen or Stechelberg, you can reach the resort of Mürren on the other side of the valley. From Stechelberg, the cable car goes all the way to the Schilthorn at an altitude of 2,971 meters, which is famous for the filming of the James Bond classic "On Her Majesty's Secret Service".
