The bob sled run featured in the James Bond film «On Her Majesty's Secret Service» in 1969.

The sledging fun starts at the Allmendhubel mountain station. Today you can follow in the footsteps of the screen hero on a spectacular descent. The sledging run slopes evenly downhill from the Allmendhubel (1,907m) through the Blumental Valley and snow-covered forests to the village of Mürren continuing on to the bottom station of the Allmendhubel funicular railway. This is a unique experience for all ages and promises exciting and lasting memories.
