With the season soon to start i visited www.snow-forecast.com Murren page and guess what... Snow-forecast now states the Schilthorn is now 3048m high instead of 2970m...
http://www.snow-forecast.com/resorts/Murren/6day/mid Ive emailed the question and they have replied - From: Snow-Forecast.com Support Sent: Monday, October 31, 2011 9:54 PM To: Chris Brookes Subject: Re: Murren data Hi, I've written to our 'Resort Manager' for this area, who will confirm the heights (this may be the height at the top of the skiable area not the top of the top lift). Regards, Michelle That was 3 days ago......could the Schilthorn increased its height ?????? |

Murren, Switzerland. Hardly any shopping to be done here but the village is car-free,with a great sports centre offering a certified nursery which the parents can stay,indoor swimming pool for the adults and a small one for young children plus ice skating rink etc etc.It has amazing views and loads of gentle walks.A superb lift system in place(trains,cablecars etc) so that you can easily meet the rest of the family up on the slopes or they can ski down to you.
We have been taking our little ones here since the age of 13 months (now aged 5yrs old and 19months )and can't fault it just make sure they are wrapped up well. |

I suggest Murren as it is currently raining below 1800m and temps are +3. This of course could change with the temps dropping and having loads of snow between now and when you arrive but eitherway head to the highest resort in the region.

The snow in the region is excellent at the moment but that is now and the 10th April is along time away in snow terms....so i would check back nearer the time if you want an honest answer !

Not fantastic as the last snow fell on the 28th Feb.
The good news it was snowing earlier and should later on with a possible 20-30cm in the next 12 hours. I would keep an eye on the following webcams later on based in the village - http://www.hoteleiger.com/webcam/cam6.jpg http://www.hoteleiger.com/webcam/cam8.jpg http://www.muerren.ch/bellevue/livecam/livecam.htm |
