Description How lucky we were to be coming down from Murren to Lauterbrunnen at exactly the time when the cows were being brought down from the high mountain meadows for the winter. What a wonderful procession of garlanded cows with cow bells clunking and people calling out - almost yodelling. My Austrian mother would have been in heaven (where she actually is).

If I'm right, the traffic sez all automotive, motorcycle and bicycle traffic are prohibited on this trail?


Sure makes cattle processions safer.... and easier to actually do!

Exactly. And the sign lower down seems to indicate that there's a mountain bike track somewhere further ahead.
