Murren - Switzerland

Murren - as the lonely planet describes "you might think you have been to heaven and back" was stunning. It's the highest alpine resort in the Swiss Alps and is everything you imagine the Swiss Alps to be. We stayed in the cute Chalet Fontana below which is a ski chalet during winter. We did several hikes around the area, caught the cable car up to the Shilthorn and enjoyed glorious sunny days surrounded by the 3 famous peaks - the Eiger, Monch and Junfrau. We stayed in the loft room of the chalet (the little windows at the top) and had views of the peaks. We ate lots of swiss cheese and chocolate!

Very cool photos again. It's like dejavu looking at your holiday:) I'm still very impressed that you went paragliding! The rovinj photos make me the most jealous, I'd love to go back there with you guys one day and stay on one of the islands with our own boat:)
