The Lauterbrunnen-Grütschalp cable car is our favorite way to travel to Mürren. It also happens to be the most affordable cable car in the region, great for those on a budget.

The Grütschalp cable car fits 100 people, runs every 15 mins, and takes only 4 mins to reach the top.

You'll find the cable car directly across the street from the Lauterbrunnen train station (see on Google maps).

💡Tip: To get the best views during the ride, we like to stand next to the windows facing the Lauterbrunnen valley (the left side as you face the mountain).

➡️ Check current status and timetable.

Tickets

You can purchase tickets on the SBB Mobile App, ticket machines and ticket office at the cable car station. If you are traveling to Mürren, use Mürren BLM as your destination when buying your ticket.

This cable car and the Mürren BLM train are free with the  Swiss Travel Pass, Jungfrau Travel Pass, Bernese Oberland Pass, SBB GA, and SBB Day Passes.
