the lauterbrunnen valley with its steep sides and many waterfalls ( 72 to be exact) has been the inspiration for the author jR.R Tolkien and his Middle Earth's Rivendell in The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings.
the beauty of this area in the summer can not be described, it has to be experienced but i leave you a quote from jJ.R. tolkien " i left the view of the jungfrau with deep regret: eternal snow, etched as it seems against eternal sunshine, and the silberhorn sharp against dark blue: the silvertine ( celebdil) of my dreams"
