Thanks Matt, what a compliment! We hope you get to visit the Schilthorn soon, and have a great experience!

That's a great way to say it: "keeps you entertained while you're doing your business" We loved the 007 details all over the Schilthorn too!

Awesome! We’re so happy to help and answer all your questions. That’s actually our goal when we make a video, so your comment is super encouraging! Thank you, and enjoy Switzerland!!

have a fantastic time!!

We hope you’re enjoying the clear blue skies and endless views right now at the Schilthorn!!

That’s super exciting! We are so glad to help you plan your trip to Switzerland 😊

Hey, how have you manage accommodation ? Please share with us

Have a great trip!

So glad you stumbled on our videos! (We have a blog too, if you’re a reader). Thanks for your encouraging compliments too!😊 We literally just posted a video today about a month-by-month view at what’s open/which trains are running. You can see that here and download our free guide to see what’s open in November (especially the Schilthorn!!) ➡️ aplinsinthealps.com/best-time-to-visit-switzerland-a-month-by-month-guide/ Enjoy your honeymoon! (We honeymooned here too…it’s so romantic!)

How cool that you got to ski her! And yeah, the James Bond stuff is just fun 😎

Awesome! We hope you get to visit one day 😊

Thanks Katherine! We certainly try to be extra helpful! :)

Thank you so much 😀

So glad to hear that!

Oh that sounds amazing! We hope you enjoyed the restaurant:) We're so glad our videos helped you plan your trip! Please say hey if you see us out and about!

@@AplinsintheAlps The restaurant was great! My wife loved the mimosas. We finished the day with a walk from Mürren to Gimmelwald a stop at the Pension for some Monch Bier, the honesty store. and some fondue in Grindelwald. Today we’re walking from Männlichen to Kleine Scheidegg, spending some time in Wengen, and hitting Glacier Park. Tomorrow it’s Grindelwald First, and Friday it’s off to Lugano for 5 days. Thanks again for these awesome videos!

Thanks, Schilthorn! We absolutely enjoyed our time at Schilthorn, and can't wait to see the new cablecar next year...we would love to attend the grand opening! We live in the area, so we will email you to see if we can attend as a media contact!

Ha, so fun your tip about filming at the revolving restaurant...that's exactly what we did!! Totally agree about making the roundtrip using the different transport-you're a pro!

@@AplinsintheAlps - the journey we took from Grindelwald that day was mad! We went back via wengen and Kleine Scheidegg!

Hey the railway from murren to grustchalp..is that covered in swiss rail pass.if not whats the fare and how long it takes frm murren to grutschalp

We’re so glad our resources have been helpful! As for Webcams, go to that specific website (like Pilatus website or Schilthorn website) to see their live webcams!

Hi there! We've never had a problem using those credit cards up here. Have fun!

Hi! Yes, return ticket means roundtrip. Will you have a train pass?

We have the swiss half fare card and the top of euro pass.

The Top of Europe Pass covers you from Grindelwald to Lauterbrunnen, and then on the Mürren BLM up to Grütschalp and over to Mürren. From there your return ticket to the Schilthorn and back should cost 42.80 CHF. Hope that helps!

You'll probably feel the altitude! But we haven't heard of many people having serious issues at the Schilthorn (just under 10,000 feet). But if you can, maybe go here after a few days in the region going to other spots in the mountains.

Hi there! This video shows how to get there from Stechelberg. So you'll just need to take a train from Interlaken to Lauterbrunnen and then the bus from there to Stechelberg. The SBB Mobile app makes navigation really simple!

Unfortunately none of the passes cover this route above Mürren. But roundtrip to the Schilthorn and back to Mürren is just 42.80 CHF with the Berner Oberland Pass.

@@AplinsintheAlps would it be a waste to visit both Jungfraujoch and Schilthorn? Or is there a sense to go to both or going to either one is already enough?

We think they're very different experiences. But don't feel pressure that either one is an absolute must-see. If you're visiting the area for 4 days or less, maybe just choose one of these spots (because there are so many other amazing places!!)

Mid May- Mid September. Once you get into October, lifts, cable cars, even some restaurants will close for the season. It's always best to double check the places you want to visit and make sure they'll be open, especially if you're traveling during non-peak season.

@@AplinsintheAlps Thank you so much 😊

It’s all one line of cable cars from Lauterbrunnen to Gimmelwald to Mürren to Birg to Schilthorn!

Yes

Yes. It’ll cost you a bit over 42 chf.

We totally left that out of the video on accident! If you have the Swiss travel pass or Berner Oberland regional pass, it should cost 42.80 roundtrip. Thanks for asking!

Hi there! We're not quite sure what you're asking, unfortunately! Can you tell us what you mean by "special facilities?" As for how to get there, we always recommend using the SBB Mobile App to navigate from point A to point B. We explain how to do just that (plus loads more about Swiss Transportation) in our Ultimate Guide to Swiss Transportation: aplinsinthealps.com/guides/ultimate-guide-to-swiss-transportation/ Hope that helps!

@@AplinsintheAlps Thanks! Just want to confirm, special facilities here are what kind of services or something else they would offer us? For instance, a cable-car ticket and a lunch coupon?

Right now everything is still open, although some viewpoints may be temporarily closed. So yea, right now we still think it’s okay to go up! But check the Schilthorn website for construction updates before your visit.

Hi there! This is a fantastic place to bring your family. We do our best to provide good budget tips and helpful videos, but we don't really have the time unfortunately to provide personalized advice. Be sure to look into the Swiss Family Card (which will save you a ton of money on transportation). There are also great playgrounds at Männlichen (the kids can play IN a cow!), Allmendhubel (above Mürren), and Bort (on the way to Grindelwald First). Some restaurants also offer discounts for children. We hope these tips help, and that our other videos do as well!

Hi Alberto! We think Interlaken is a great home base, especially if you plan to travel around the lakes in addition to the mountains. We're working on a video to help travelers choose which village/town to use as their home base-what specific questions do you have that we could maybe answer in that video?

Hmmm good question. I don’t remember. Maybe 5 CHF?

Thanks!

Hello! Tickets are half price with the Swiss Travel Pass, and kids 6-15 are free with the Swiss Family Card!

The Schilthorn is closed from April 24-28, 2023. The Swiss Travel Pass covers you up to Mürren, but you'll have to pay the rest of the way, 42.80 CHF roundtrip. Hope this helps!

@@AplinsintheAlps thanks

Just bring your ID, there‘s no need to book in advance. But it‘s really only valid on your birthday.

Everything we show in this video can be done at the Schilthorn, but there are no other activities available on this mountain peak, unless you hike down. Hope that helps!

Great questions! We recommend checking the weather the night before and the morning of. If it's foggy or cloudy, there won't be any views-however sometimes the clouds are very high or very low, so that's what we'd check for on the webcams. Basically, how clear is it? That's the goal! Enjoy your trip to the Schilthorn!

@@AplinsintheAlps thanks so much for being so helpful guys! ❤️ we can’t wait to get there and experience Switzerland! We’re from singapore so drop us a message if you ever come by this part of the world! We’d love to connect!

That's so kind of you! And definitely stop us to say hello if you see us in Switzerland :)

This was filmed in the summer season :)

Hi there! We don't yet have an off-season guide. But we're releasing a video on October 8th that discusses what's open during different months of the year. And we have lots of other Swiss videos if you haven't seen them yet: -Interlaken Cheap & Free Activities (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pM15e5d2xNnVn2w.html) -Hiking along Lake Brienz to Giessbach Waterfalls (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q7VkaK-elba-nn0.html) -Swiss Food Tour (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y7eag6ZkxtnLoYE.html) -Jungfraujoch Complete Guide (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/lZmWZbaWx7Calac.html) We hope these help you!!

@@AplinsintheAlps thanks for the tips Jana and Brett! We’re heading there in early Nov too! Super excited 😊

@The D Man would you be there around 9-15 Nov? :)

Hi there! We filmed this toward the end of August.

We filmed this in August of 2022!

Hi there! Breakfast ends at 11:00, so it depends on where you're coming from. Usually the latest table reservation for breakfast (which you can book online) is at 9:30.

@@AplinsintheAlps Thank you, your video is great!

You're welcome!

Download the SBB Mobile App and enter the navigation from Interlaken to Schilthorn. It will tell you the exact time (and route and platforms etc)! It will be 1 hr 20 mins - 1 hr 50 mins depending on where you’re staying in Interlaken (Interlaken west or Ost) so we can’t give you an exact answer.

Thank you so much!

@@AplinsintheAlps The Jungfrau Top of Europe pass doesn't cover all the necessary travel, correct?

Since you want good weather for the Schilthorn (views!), we recommend waiting to book until you’re here. Also, it won’t be jam packed in November so you shouldn’t have a problem ✅

Thanks so much for your reply guys! ☺️ one more - we’re planning to take the Bernina express too, should we book seat reservation in advance now or wait till we’re there?

For brunch at Piz Gloria, what time would you guys suggest we reserved for? ☺️ and should we reserve in advance or can also wait till the day before?

You can reserve the Piz Gloria in advance, but usually a day or two ahead is just fine. We like getting up there early in the morning-if you check out our Mürren Guide (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r8VimZqb2Muaeqs.html), you'll find lots of other suggestions for how to spend a day in the area!

@@AplinsintheAlps wonderful! Thank you for your reply! Great fan and we’ve subscribed to your emailers too. Lovely to read about your story! We also petsit but only in our own country, didn’t know that you could do it overseas! We’re super excited to visit Switzerland in 2 weeks time.

Yes! It's closed for maintenance for a few days in late in late April and for 4 weeks from mid-November to mid-December. You can find more info here: schilthorn.ch/en/Infos/Timetable__and__Tariff

Thank you so much for your time guys 😄

My first time to Switzerland next January so spending about 4 days each in Zurich, lucerne,lauterbrunnen, Grindelwald, Zermatt then glacier express to st Moritz then back to Zurich and fly home. So looking forwards to it and am going through all your vid’s for ideas 👍😀

Awesome, so glad we can help!

Actually we have wanted to do this for 10 years (since we didn’t get the opportunity on our honeymoon) and we finally did it this summer! You’re right, incredible opportunity! And sneak peek: that video will be coming out soon! 🙃

Thank you!

No, unfortunately, but it does offer a pretty nice discount.

@@AplinsintheAlps yeah we will stick to the first. Still pretty cloud by during the day for it to be worth it. But it’s so close to Murren kinda have to do it on a clear day. Thanks for all your videos and guides. We have em all

What?! No way! Where did you see that?
