Since mid-October, the Schilthorn summit has not been accessible from Birg due to the construction of the new aerial cableway. The closure is directly reflected in the frequency and the turnover. Several catering establishments, the hotels industry and winter sports, on the other hand, paint a positive picture. Highlights of the past year were the opening of two new cableways.
The 81st International Inferno Races will take place in Mürren from 22nd to 25th of January 2025. In this edition, the start will exceptionally not be on the Kleine Schilthorn. Online registration is still open until 15th September 2024.
The 78th International Inferno Races from 19 - 22 January 2022 have been approved. However, due to the current situation surrounding COVID-19, the programme will be adjusted slightly. The focus will be on the sports competitions. In particular, the supporting programme since the planned festivities will be limited.
Schilthorn Cableway Ltd is based in Stechelberg and connects the Lauterbrunnen valley from Stechelberg with the car-free mountain villages of Gimmelwald and Mürren, continuing via Birg station to the Schilthorn summit at 2970 m.a.s.l. In front of Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau, the Schilthorn region offers numerous activities for guests from all over the globe. The Schilthorn acquired international prominence through the filming of the James Bond movie "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" in 1968.
