Has anyone gone on the Via Ferrata Mürren? How was the experience if yes?

whitneyentropy 3mo

Yes,
It was awesome. Scary as hell at points but awesome and well worth it.

When you are on the tight rope sections grab the guide wires from underneath so your elbows point down (it really helps with balance).

Weather should still be good for going now. You want a clear morning.

The Schwartz Monch cafe and bar is great to grab a beer when you finish.

Also Stägerstübli in Mürren for a good local dinner that's not super expensive. It's Switzerland, so it's expensive but less so.

onwzcxzjkgoxvufp thanks man, me an my wife are afraid of heights, but anyways we are going to go for it and conquer that fear.

In that case sign up with a guide. I did it solo and just traded pictures with someone I met on the trail. It was much more frightening on my own.

Since, it’s my first time getting on such an adventure I decided to go with a guide.

It was my first Via Ferrata. Scary indeed but great!

> me an my wife are afraid of heights
This one has some particularly gnarly spots where you can see straight down through your feet a few hundred meters.

If on top of being afraid of heights, you are also susceptible to panic attacks, then maybe try an easier climb.

Hey all, I have some friends currently in Zurich and they're a little taken aback by the price of food and groceries. Obviously I've pointed out that it's an expensive country but they asked me if I knew whether prices were less expensive regionally (outside of major cities)?

Rent prices are definitely very high in Zürich. Also restaurants, bars and lots of activities are expensive in Zurich. Compared to other cities like Berne I would say that Zurich is 15-25% more expensive. However there are also other factors to be considered, e.g. supermarket prices are the same everywhere and in some cities taxes are higher than in Zurich.

cephei 2mo

There’s different supermarket chains that vary in price. Lidl, Aldi and Denner are cheaper than Coop and Migros

mitchmalone 2mo

Haha, thanks team. I suspected as much.

mitchmalone 2mo

They're only there for a week, so they'll manage.
