Schilthorn, situated about 2970 m above sea level attracts tourists from all over the world owing to the fact that one of the most popular Bond movies, On Her Majesty's Secret Service, was filmed here. This peak is also home to a revolving restaurant which apart from serving Swiss and international cuisine offers you panoramic views of the Eiger, Monch, Jungfrau and even Mont Blanc and the Black Forest on relatively clearer days. It is advisable to check the weather before you visit and do not forget to carry warm clothing. The ubiquitous snow can send shivers running down your spine, but it never has and will never be a deterrent considering the beauty that Schilthorn has to offer.
There are several cable cars departing from the beautiful little town of Murren that take you to the top of the mountain. Getting to Murren is the easiest from Interlaken and there are regular trains that connect the two. The official website of Schilthorn should provide you vital information about tickets, timings and directions. Additionally, the Swiss Federal Railways website will take care of everything you want to know about your train journeys across the country. Owning a Swiss Pass is a clever way of travelling in Switzerland.
