Weather forecast was pretty dismal this morning, but despite this the sun came out after we’d done a bit of shopping. We headed down the steep path that leads to Lauterbrunnen at the bottom of the valley. The path crosses the old railway line. It is gradually returning to nature, but having been constructed from stone and steel in the nineteenth century I think it’ll be with us for a few more years yet.

The new (1988) line carries very modern rolling stock.

Lauterbrunnen is quite pretty from the right angles. 

We had venison pie for lunch at the Airtime cafe, after which the clouds rolled up the valley as the forecast said they would. Time to get the train back up to Wengen.
