Location: Lauterbrunnen Valley, Bernese Oberland, Switzerland
This hike took me from Lauterbrunnen station, up the cable car to Grutschalp, along a trail to Murren, down a cable car to Stechelberg, and walking along the valley floor (with a stop at Trummelbach falls) back to Lauterbrunnen. A lovely itinerary for a day trip, without much exertion.
