Hike the Historic North Face Trail

While many visitors flock straight to the major summits, the North Face Trail starting in Mürren provides one of the most rewarding and accessible day hikes in the Bernese Alps. This well-marked loop trail winds through lush alpine pastures and offers dramatic direct perspectives of the formidable north faces of the surrounding peaks.

Along the trail, informative historical panels tell the stories of early mountaineers who tackled these legendary summits. Stop at one of the rustic mountain hamlets along the path, such as Suppenalp or Blumental, to enjoy local Alpine cheese and homemade fruit tarts with an unforgettable backdrop.
