It's an interesting period for Murren's famous Piz Gloria revolving mountain restaurant.
The restaurant is getting extra attention at present because of its James Bond connections, with the new SPECTRE movie the first for a decade with scenes shot in a ski resort.
It opened a new 'James Bond 007 Walk' recently which follows routes taken by actors in the 1969 Bond film 'On Her Majesty's Secret Service' and includes information boards, leading to the existing Bond Exhibition. Both are year round and free to access so long as you have a lift pass to get there.
The restaurant , which played a crucial role in the film as the lair of the arch baddy, was built 50 years ago, but was reported to only have been completed after finance was provided by the movie production company after investment cash had dried up. They also built a helicopter landing pad with huge expense and effort just for the film.
Along with the latest Bond attractions however the attest improvements work for skiers too. The stairs that used to need to be negotiated to access the slopes are now a thing of the past with connections levelled out and a new passenger lift means that stairs in ski boots are a thing of the past throughout the building.
