Hi fellow travelers
We ( a party of 2 ) are planning to stay in Wengen for 7 nights in late August / early September next year.
On one of those days we plan to go to Shilthorn and have lunch at Piz Gloria.
As per what everyone suggests, the booking for Piz Gloria should be made on the morning of the day you plan to go, after checking the webcam ( to make sure that you get a clear day )
My question is : if you book for lunch on the very day you are going, will you be able to get a booking ?
Also, any inputs regarding the buffet would be appreciated. Is it worth the price ?
I have read that window seats are reserved for party of 4 and above. Since we are just 2, will we not get a window seat ? And if we do not get a window seat, is it still worth going there ? I mean will we be able to enjoy the views while sitting away from the window ?
Can one just go there for a drink ?
There are 3 hikes in Murren ( I am talking about the easy / moderate ones which we can do ).
What I have written below is based on what I have read/ understood , please feel free to correct me if I am wrong.
1 Gruschap to Murren : I read it’s a 2.7 miles long, very easy hike ( 1. 30 hours ).
Halfway along, take a stop at Winteregg for icecream and continue to Murren.
2 Walk through the village to Mürren
(Allmendhubelbahn) funicular station. Ride up to the Allmendhubel (Standseilbahn) station, which drops you at the flower park. Walk the Flower Trail . 1 hour long, very easy hike ( going downhill ) Length : 2 miles , Elev. gain : 200 ft
3 . Walk through the village of Murren to Gimmelwald. This is a 3 kms long, easy, downhill panoramic walk on paved road ( 1 hour), visit “ little cheese shops” at local resident houses, “ Honesty shops” and stop for refreshments ( pizza ) and the view at Pension Gimmelwald .
My question : can all 3 be done on the same day ?
If not, which ones should be clubbed together and which one done on another day.
Are there any other easy hikes ( starting from Murren) which are better and can be done by us.
TIA
