Nope. Nope. And nope for me. That said this was BY FAR the BEST video I’ve seen of this Via Ferrata! I felt I was right there with you (keeping my heart rate at a safe level 😅). Thanks so much for sharing all the details of preparation and experience. It will encourage those thrill seekers among us while being very satisfying for people with “ edgeophobia” like me. 😊
You’re so kind, thank you! We’re glad to “safely” take you along on the journey with us 😁 We are not big risk takers, so we definitely wanted to share the prep and details to make this experience happen. Also, “edgeophobia” has now been added to my language because that’s such a good description for that fear!! 🤓
OMG!! That's totally awesome!! Yet another reason to return to the Lauterbrunnen Valley. You guys keep raising the bar. Thank you for all the great videos!!
It was such an amazing experience! Yes, you'll definitely need to return and do this:) Thanks for the encouragement! We love sharing these videos with you all.
Just when I think you can’t surprise me anymore, I really think the two of you have wings. I don’t know how you did that hike climb you are truly two brave souls. thanks for sharing with us. I know I could never do that one myself. God bless you!
Wow, im just here watching and smiling as you guys walking on the cliff of beautiful Lauterbrunnen where i was just there merely few months ago, makes me wanna go back and do this ferrrata myself, thanks for Sharing! loved it!
I so wanted to do this when I went there in 2019! Unfortunately we didn’t know we needed to plan better, so we arrived shortly before the last self guided allowed time, and the gal at the Intersport disapprovingly indicated we could not go because our sneakers were not good enough, and we wouldn’t have time to rent boots and get going in time 😣 It was awesome seeing your footage all this time later-thanks for sharing! ❤ This is on my list for an eventual return trip 😊
We hope you get to come back and try this again one day! At least the salespeople at the Intersport were honest with you about needing better shoes. I’m grateful they wanted to keep you safe!!
@@AplinsintheAlps I agree, especially after seeing your video! I just wish we’d known more ahead of time. We had been told it was beginner level and self guided, so we thought we were good to just show up as we were!
@@CaitlinConCuoreif you don't have much ferrata experience, approach shoes if not solid B/C hiking boots are a must, if experienced, trailrunners might do, although not a brilliant choice on ferratas with plenty iron steps and ladders...sneakers are an absolute no go! They don't provide any grip from a profile and rubber compound perspective and the sole is way too soft 🤷♂️
It really was an amazing experience! Maybe one day you'll feel ready to take on the challenge:) Thanks so much for taking the time to tell us you enjoy our channel. We're happy to have you here!
Thank you for all your videos! :) I will be going to Switzerland in a few weeks and have been binge watching them 😅 My partner and I have prior rock climbing experience and also have done via ferrata like cave explorations in the past so we are considering going without a guide to save some money. You mentioned that you need a guide to do the zipline, is there an alternative way around if you have no guide? Thanks! :)
@@AplinsintheAlps Of course :) I've been planning my trip to Switzerland in September and I was looking into this trail literally the exact time you uploaded this video! Still not completely sure if I'll have the courage to do it though lol
You can only do the zipline if you go with a guide, so the other videos were probably people who went on their own. There's a way to bypass the zipline if you go without a guide. Hope that helps!
Awesome video! This truly looks much simpler and not as taxing as the one in West Virginia😂 let’s just say for every step my guys did it took me 3-4 to get to the same spot lol. This is now on my to do list❤️ praying the weather breaks up and is beautiful!
wondering if it's possible to meet a family member who is doing this so we can see them coming off the bridge, is there a path from Gimmelwald to the bridge?
Well I guess the question is once you come off the bridge where do you go? I’m guessing there must be a path to Gimmelwald, if I can find that path I can use it to see that family member cross that bridge
The website mentions they don't rent outngear when it rains/when wet. Do they make an exception when using a guide? Or maybe they're chill about it? Thx! Doing this soon!
Thanks for this awesome video! I was looking for a beginner one of these When I visit Switzerland in September and this might just be it. Now I'm hyped. Also what kind of camera did you use to film this?
Unfortunately we probably won’t be able to film in 4K. The footage files are too large and take up more space that we can manage and slow down our editing software. But maybe one day we can upgrade! 👍
What a great video (thank goodness your GoPro batteries lasted 😜) I don’t think I could ever do that - mostly for the exposed cliff section - the zip wire looks great though! I’m sure I’ve seen this from the Gimmelwald - Stetchelberg cable car?
My kids are very excited to do this, so it's on our 1 day itinerary of Mürren. I bought your 1 day Mürren travel guide and will recommend it to everyone interested. It's awesome. While they do Via Ferrata ,I will follow some of your options on the guide. Question: We arrive with the Swiss Travel Pass in Lauterbrunnen. Are most of the cable cars, etc from there 50% for us? Thanks for clarifying!!😊
They often have the bottom part of the helmet mount already on some of their helmets. But you will need the top part that clips your GoPro into that. Have fun!
We did this (on our own) in October 2022. Sadly the zip line wasn't available, but we totally enjoyed the rest of the hike. I remember my knees getting weak on the cliffside section. It was probably my favorite section, but also made me the most nervous. Great video! We'd totally do this again!!
How cool that you’ve done this too!! 🤩 You’re right, the zip line is only open for group tours. Otherwise there is another tightrope to detour around it. Looking back, we were more nervous than we needed to be on that cliff section. Now we want to go back and try again with more confidence!
im about to do it in a month, did u guy rent the harness and gloves in intersport murren? if so, did they explain how to put it or maybe they put it on u? lastly, how do u skip the zipline part if u dont have a guide? thanks a lot!
@@גיאורד-נ6ש - Not sure if this question was for us, but we did rent from Intersport. It's right next to the trail head, so it's very convenient. We didn't need assistance on putting the gear on, but the staff is friendly and helpful. If you've never done a trail with this kind of risk involved, a trail guide would be a great way to learn. :D However, if you decide to do this hike without a guide, you can bypass the zipline at a fork in the trail.
We filmed this in August 2022. But we didn’t want to publish it in September since it closed in October. That’s why we saved it till now! This via ferrata opens in the end of May/beginning of June.
@@AplinsintheAlps I see! I'm heading there 1st of June. Took a look at the mountain webcams - quite a bit of snow at the moment. Hoping it'll melt away by the time I reach as I'm planning to only hike. Bad planning/research on my end. Haha!
My opinion might not be popular for people who have been to Switzerland, but Murren was my favorite place. I would never do this. I have fear of heights.
Yes, we filmed with a GoPro on Brett’s helmet, and Jana used her iPhone when we were hiking on the ground. This is closer to Interlaken so we recommend it as an excursion from there.
We were in Gimmelwald thursday - sunday. Would have loved to have done this but it was just too wet most of the time and Sunday we had to leave at 2 ;-(
It has been a little wet here lately. Sorry you didn't get a chance to do this but that just means you'll need to come back:) We'd love to hear about some of your rainy day activities while in Gimmelwald.
Hello!! @Aplins in the Alps 😊 me and my mate are here in Grindelwald and want to meet with you guys Please concern Anyways a great fan of your videos u guys made visit Switzerland your guide helped us alot❤❤
Hey there! It sounds like we missed you but we hope you had a wonderful time in Grindelwald. Thanks for letting us know how helpful our videos have been. That is really encouraging!

now that is something i would have to try once i go back to Switzerland
Absolutely! It’s a fun thrill, and beginner friendly!
Thanks for taking me along! This one I will experience vicariously through y’all! 😁😁😁
🤣 Then we’re extra glad we were able to share this experience with you!
Hell yeah! I’ll definitely do it ❤❤❤
It's definitely worth it!
Wow, im just here watching and smiling as you guys walking on the cliff of beautiful Lauterbrunnen where i was just there merely few months ago, makes me wanna go back and do this ferrrata myself, thanks for Sharing! loved it!
It was an amazing adventure! You'll definitely have to do this if/when you come back:)

This was fantastic. Thank you for sharing.
So glad you enjoyed the video! And thanks for taking the time to tell us:)
Do they rent a GoPro or a camera for the hard hat? Great video! Thanks
Great question! We're not sure if they rent GoPros, but they do usually have mounts on at least some of the helmets.
I can't wait to do this!! Love your videos.
Awesome!! We hope you get to do this one day!!
We are going in June! Can’t wait!
We're excited for you! Have a wonderful trip!
We're going in June too! If you do it first, report back!
I have my ticket for July 1! I’ve been wanting to do this via ferrata for years and this was so fun to watch!
Your trip is so close! Are you planning on doing this when you're here?
Thank you so much for introducing this sports to us. Very exciting but I guess I’m not brave enough to take it. Love your channel!
It really was an amazing experience! Maybe one day you'll feel ready to take on the challenge:) Thanks so much for taking the time to tell us you enjoy our channel. We're happy to have you here!
YOU GUYS ARE CRAZY!!!! My feet are sweating just watching!!!! Looks fun though!
🤣It was a fun thrill that didn’t feel too extreme or unsafe. We loved it!!
Oh boy that looks as Scary AF. We are heading to Interlaken next week. We are so looking forward to our trip. Cheers from South Australia
There were definitely some scary moments but overall it was SO much fun! Enjoy your time in Interlaken!
Great video guys! Try the Allmenalp next. It's harder, but man, what a buzz!
Oooo thanks for the suggestion! We will add it to our map as an intermediate via ferrata to try later 😊
Thank you for all your videos! :) I will be going to Switzerland in a few weeks and have been binge watching them 😅 My partner and I have prior rock climbing experience and also have done via ferrata like cave explorations in the past so we are considering going without a guide to save some money. You mentioned that you need a guide to do the zipline, is there an alternative way around if you have no guide?
Thanks! :)
There is an alternative path that has a tightrope to walk across. Basically like the tightrope they show in this video but a bit longer
@@davidm5963 Thanks so much!!!
Thanks for sharing the alternate route David! 🙂
@@AplinsintheAlps Of course :) I've been planning my trip to Switzerland in September and I was looking into this trail literally the exact time you uploaded this video! Still not completely sure if I'll have the courage to do it though lol
Awesome, I gotta go!!
Yes! It was an amazing experience.
Is there a way to complete the route without doing the zipline? watching other videos, I havent seen this zipline part before. Is it new?
You can only do the zipline if you go with a guide, so the other videos were probably people who went on their own. There's a way to bypass the zipline if you go without a guide. Hope that helps!
Awesome video! This truly looks much simpler and not as taxing as the one in West Virginia😂 let’s just say for every step my guys did it took me 3-4 to get to the same spot lol. This is now on my to do list❤️ praying the weather breaks up and is beautiful!
Oh gosh, that via ferrata in WV sounds tough!! This was truly beginner friendly. The weather should be better this week so we hope you get to try it!
Amazing edit 👏🏼 thanks so much for getting involved! 🙏🏼
Thank YOU for such an awesome experience! We’re thrilled to share the adventure with our audience and see them climb the cliffs of Lauterbrunnen too 😎
wondering if it's possible to meet a family member who is doing this so we can see them coming off the bridge, is there a path from Gimmelwald to the bridge?
My question also!😊
Hmmm I’m actually not sure. It’s a one-way trail and I don’t know if there is a viewing place. I’ll have to look that up!
Well I guess the question is once you come off the bridge where do you go? I’m guessing there must be a path to Gimmelwald, if I can find that path I can use it to see that family member cross that bridge
The website mentions they don't rent outngear when it rains/when wet. Do they make an exception when using a guide? Or maybe they're chill about it?
Thx! Doing this soon!
Hi! We are doing this on June 8. The guide told us zip line might not be available. Do you know anything about that?
Nope, no idea! Maybe it’s having maintenance done? I’d trust your guide to know what’s going on.
Wonderful 😍you both are brave
Thank you! If you’re reasonably fit and not afraid of heights, you could do this too!
Thanks for this awesome video! I was looking for a beginner one of these When I visit Switzerland in September and this might just be it. Now I'm hyped. Also what kind of camera did you use to film this?
We used a GoPro 10 as well as our iPhones. Enjoy!
@@AplinsintheAlps thank you!
Perfect video... 👍👍👍
Thanks for letting us know you enjoyed it!
great video 😍. Can you raise the resolution to 4k
Unfortunately we probably won’t be able to film in 4K. The footage files are too large and take up more space that we can manage and slow down our editing software. But maybe one day we can upgrade! 👍
What model camera did you use and what size battery? How long would the camera run if it was on the entire time?
We filmed with a GoPro. And it wasn't on the whole time but we did need to swap batteries once or twice.
Respekt🤩
What a great video (thank goodness your GoPro batteries lasted 😜)
I don’t think I could ever do that - mostly for the exposed cliff section - the zip wire looks great though!
I’m sure I’ve seen this from the Gimmelwald - Stetchelberg cable car?
You sure have!! The suspension bridge at the end is visible from the cable car.
My kids are very excited to do this, so it's on our 1 day itinerary of Mürren. I bought your 1 day Mürren travel guide and will recommend it to everyone interested. It's awesome. While they do Via Ferrata ,I will follow some of your options on the guide.
Question: We arrive with the Swiss Travel Pass in Lauterbrunnen. Are most of the cable cars, etc from there 50% for us? Thanks for clarifying!!😊
do you need an extra attachment to hook up GoPro to helmet?
They often have the bottom part of the helmet mount already on some of their helmets. But you will need the top part that clips your GoPro into that. Have fun!

Do you recall what the closest station was to you after arriving in Gimmelwald?
You end right at the Gimmelwald cable car station - the only station in the village.
How much is the whole trip from Mürren via ferrata to Gimmiwald with guide and gears?
Good question! You can find up-to-date details and pricing info here: outdoor.ch/en/outdoor-activities/via-ferrata-muerren
My opinion might not be popular for people who have been to Switzerland, but Murren was my favorite place. I would never do this. I have fear of heights.
We love that you loved Murren so much! If you have a fear of heights this would definitely be challenging.
Was it a gopro that you used for this?
I am going to be in Lucerne and Interlaken, is it better to book this when I am in Interlakken?
Yes, we filmed with a GoPro on Brett’s helmet, and Jana used her iPhone when we were hiking on the ground. This is closer to Interlaken so we recommend it as an excursion from there.
@@AplinsintheAlps Did you see anyone there with a big fear of heights or anyone freeze?
We were in Gimmelwald thursday - sunday.

Hello!! @Aplins in the Alps 😊 me and my mate are here in Grindelwald and want to meet with you guys
Please concern
Anyways a great fan of your videos u guys made visit Switzerland your guide helped us alot❤❤
Hey there! It sounds like we missed you but we hope you had a wonderful time in Grindelwald. Thanks for letting us know how helpful our videos have been. That is really encouraging!
@@AplinsintheAlps it's very nice of you thank you for concern ❤️
Can we rent any sport camera in there too?
Unfortunately no. We’ve asked around all over the Jungfrau Region and haven’t found anyone who rents out sports cameras.
It's a cool hike but more hiking than climbling. Very fun beginner trail that even kids can do.
Absolutely! That’s why it’s probably so beginner friendly 🙂
We were wondering what ppl were doing there.. so there's this activity😮😮😮
Yeah! I’m assuming you meant that you saw people on the bridge from Gimmelwald or the Schilthornbahn? It’s this via ferrata!
Yeah this looks scary, I'd probably hate the swinging suspension bridge the most.
My insides are aching watching some of that. No way.
Sometimes it's better to keep the feet on the ground, right?! :)
😮😮
That's what my face looked like when we started but it was really a lot of fun!
so crazy video kkkkkk can you share guide informatio for example google address?
I could not do this without a few rolls of toilet wipes 😐
Haha! Best comment🤣
Yeah - no. I love watching your videos but that is a hard no from me :)
That’s okay! We’re glad to share the experience with you, even if you don’t want to do it yourself! 😊
Via Ferrata translates to "iron road."
Great video, but not for us
.. alpine views, boat rides, chocolate, and fondue, please 😂
It’s not for everyone, but at least you can enjoy a similar view from the village of Mürren! 😍 Or even from below in Lauterbrunnen!
Omg not in this lifetime
I get it! But we did have a lot of fun doing this:)
Eek….nope!
HaHa! We get it! This isn't for everyone but it really was a lot of fun:)
On some part this is not even a via ferrata
Correct, that’s why it’s beginner friendly!
Over the top.....fear farting
Haha! It definitely was heart stopping at certain points😂
Is it necessary to do it with a guide?
From what we know and from our experience, you cannot do these without a guide.
