7 nights in Berner Oberland

I will arrive in Mürren with my wife on Tuesday evening. We will be there for four nights, and have three more in Frutigen. Right now, the weather doesn't look great. What rainy day activities do you recommend? We have a Swiss Rail Pass and we're more than willing to use it!

Thanks.

You can't trust weather apps for places so high up in the alps. The weather can change on a dime. I was there last week walking around in Murren, looked at my phone's weather app and it said it was raining where I was - it was NOT raining because I was standing outside. You just can't trust them.

Don't let the weather in Murren worry you too early. We arrived here 4 days ago when rain was predicted. We have had sunny, hot weather. The forecast that I saw here tonight was sunny starting next Monday.
The locals say to check only the local weather forecast for better accuracy.
Rick Steves has info in his Switzerland book on what to do for rainy days.
Bring your bathing suit as the hotels here give you free passes to the amazing Sports Complex. We used the gorgeous inside pool. Check with your hotel. There are programs such as yoga at the complex too.
Have a great trip, it's an amazing area to explore!
