At the edge of the galaxy
Lauterbrunnen, a Swiss pastoral scene in the canton of Bern, is painted together with villages such as Wengen and Mürren. Here, the population is sparse, yet more than the surrounding small villages.
Lauterbrunnen railway station, located in the heart of the village, is a junction for the Bernese Oberland Railway to Interlaken and the Wengernalp Railway to Wengen, Kleine Scheidegg, and Grindelwald. At Kleine Scheidegg, passengers can transfer to the Jungfrau Railway that crosses the Eiger to the Jungfrau. Next to the main station, the lower terminal of the Bergbahn Lauterbrunnen-Mürren, passengers can take a cable car or train directly to Mürren.
In Lauterbrunnen town, apart from the main station, there are nine small stations on the WAB line such as Wengwald, Wengen, Allmend, Wengernalp, and Kleine Scheidegg, the Eigergletscher station on the JB line, and the Grütschalp, Winteregg, and Mürren stations on the LSMS line. Postal buses connect Lauterbrunnen village closely with Stechelberg, Trümmelbach Falls, and Isenfluh. To reach Mürren, travelers can take a bus to Stechelberg and then transfer to the LSMS cable car.
