My wife and I did this last year. Our last day in Mürren was the first day it opened and the weather was perfect. Coolest thing we have ever done. Great video. Wished we had a gopro when we we did it. Thanks for sharing.
I do, it was June 15th. It may vary a little I'm not sure. As I recall it has to do with nesting birds. Well worth it if you can work it in to your schedule.
If you're going to be there for a few days, they have this thing called the "Holiday Pass". that gives you unlimited use of cable cars, trains and the funicular on the Schilthorn side of the valley. I believe they have a 4 day pass and a 6 day pass. A good value if your up and down a lot. Also, the Piz Gloria on top of the Shilthorn is awesome. It was the bad guys lair in a 007 movie. The Hotel Alpina where we stayed has fantastic views, as do most places there. schilthorn.ch/en/Angebot/Offers/Special_Offers/Holiday_Pass_(Murren_-_Schilthorn)
I don't know if it makes any difference, but I was told when I learnt how to do via ferrata that best way to setup the device is to place the carabiners clips opposite of each other. This way, if you hit a protruding rock with your device, and are unlucky enough that the carabiner opens, only one of them possibly opens.
you are right, thats the most efficient way. I don´t do it always thought, depends how difficult is the via. The possibility that this can happen is very remote. Anyway the best way is that one as u said.
Thats right. Thats also the way i handle it. But nowerdays, because of the progress in climbing technique, the carabines got improved in safty so you dont need to do this anymore. But, as i said, i learned it that way and still continue doing so.
Agree with the previous comment, thanks for posting. I did it about a month before you. Beautiful weather, then. The best was watching the base jumpers - truly heart stopping.
Love it! My son and I did this, we only had a still camera! I was 55 at the time, and had a pair of Keen, sandels on, my feet, and no gloves. Scariest thing I've ever done, but greatest! Thanks for posting this video! Brings back great, memories!
jodys5 I am very happy for you! It was a really nice experience with amazing company. How brave you are, going with sandels!! haha. See u at the mountains!!
Great, great, thank you for sharing this magnificent scenery...well done to all of you who has the pleasure to experience this ....I hope one day I could be there...
Hi there! LOVE your video. I was wondering if you can share how you mounted (accessories used) & how you angled the GoPro? I've been viewing a lot of GoPro footage for via Ferrata and I liked how yours was shot best. Thank you! Awesome awesome video! The waterfall at 3:36 😍😆
hi!! thanks a lot for your lovely comment. I used a headstrap which i mount over the helmet, then i have my gopro close to my forehead and not at the top of my head. I think you can see at 8:07. and then facing maybe a bit down. not much.
Do you think a guide is necessary for this via ferrata if I have no climbing experience? Or is common sense enough (don't unhook both carabiners at the same time)?
I think you should go with someone who can give you a couple of tips if it is your first time with VF. You could do some typical mistakes which could make u sth wrong and fall. In that case, you would just hung.... and if you are lucky you would not crash with anything. Without a guide or friend you would survive, yes.
Unfortunately, getting a guide turns this $25 activity into over $100... and the guides charge per person not per group. So for two people that’s now over $200 for this. Just not worth the money.
I went first time, without a guide, 63 years old! And I was completely alone on the mountain, fog rolled in while starting the Nepal bridge! Scary stuff! Did just fine, though. Three hours to complete.
A parte qualche torrentello di stagione che rende affascinante i passaggi e un discreto panorama, sembra essere una ferrata noiosa da morire attrezzata prevalentemente alla francese. Non devono per forza essere tutte tecniche, ci mancherebbe, ma questa sembra davvero tanto fumo e niente arrosto... Bravi comunque ragazzi!
I have to say, safety cable system here is basically illusion. The way it is set up in places, it won't help you much if you lose grip or footing and fall. Not for beginners for sure!
@@NaSeRg (long time ago since your question, but as I just saw the clip ...) I think he referred to the distance of anchor points when climbing down some of the ladders ... if you slip, you'd fall the full length of the ladder before your harness can catch you, if the video shows those correctly. Also you never should have two people on the same section (between two anchor points, like shown in the video ...
@@bjoernich3660 Hi Bjoern! as i said, i dont think switzerland can do such a basic mistakes. And yes, you should not have two people on the same section, not even in different ones in a row. if someone is in the third part, i should be in the first and not in the second one, obviously not in the same one. You are right.

Do you remember their opening date?

not really, around May. Google it and should be found.

I keep looking and all I can find is June 15, but you guys obviously went before June so I’m not sure.

Im kinda late. however with this type of the carabines (palm carabines) its not nescessary anymore.
@@rusteDDDD yeah with the newer ones your pretty safe o matter how you put them

Respect you guys, cannot bear that view 😱

Wspaniała trasa! Amazing! Good job :-)
Great, great, thank you for sharing this magnificent scenery...well done to all of you who has the pleasure to experience this ....I hope one day I could be there...
thanks a lot!!! i hope it too!!
I MUST go to this place, love it. Thx bro for the great impressions.
Nice view and trip, probably Norway 👍😉
One word INCREDIBLE!
Uaooooouuuuuuuuuuuuui all'infinito molto bello questo video
Porque ya no está disponible el video?? Con lo chulo que está.
Me podrías decir el nombre de los temas que salen en el video porfavor??

A downhill klettersteig. What a novel concept
Absolutely love it. I'm going in July
Amazing!! It's been added to the 'to do' list!
Super
Quite the exposure, nice video.
Wunderschön!!
I did this in July. What a awesome thrill!
Very impressive !
One question : is that a cable car pylon on the edge of the cliff at 1:39 ??? Seems damn steep...
saimon1969 i guess!!! Thanks! Pretty steep, cool sensation!
Hopefully will do it this year. Great video. Do they let you use your own go pro ? How long did it take 3hrs?
Who is “they”? I didnt pay any guide... we went by our own, so i used my own go pro. Dont remember the time but could be that.
What is a type of path like this for?
Wow. When we did this, the water isn't not strong at all. Two waterfalls won't affect us completely
Did it today....nice wheater ....still was scary

Switzerland :) !!!
Sieht abwechslungsreich aus. Muss ich auch mal machen.
Were Is?
Mürren! 😊
Bel video!!:)
Which level is that? Very interesting :)
actually is just K3. It has no technical difficult part but pretty high in some points if you are afraid of heights.
@@NaSeRg I love via ferrata :) have done the k5 level. Will test this one this summer :)
@@dirlenelopez6033 very recommended in autumn!!!! which k5? Braunwald?
@@NaSeRg yes, this was one of them - Braunwald. Have you tried it?
@@dirlenelopez6033 sure. i was twice there. i did around 20 different VF in Switz. Not many from the french part. i have a spanish book of it.
fantastic
eccitante....
Where was it? :)
Mürren, Interlaken, Switzerland, Europe
Ola Pablo are you mexican?

Puikus video. Via ferrata nera sunki bet kopti buvo tikrai malonu, buvau ten pries du metus..
Thanks man! i hope you enjoyed 2 years ago!

why? how can you say sth like that? Then nobody should take that risk and everybody does. Dont think Switzerland allowes what you are saying.
