According to Seat61, the Berner Oberland Bahn is now accepting Eurail/ Interrail passes. (It previously only gave a 25% discount).

Great news if true 👍

Interlaken to Grindelwald, Lauterbrunnen, Wengen. Now fully covered.

Passes are now also valid to Mürren (using the BLM), according to the new validity map for Switzerland that Seat61 refers to.

That's really goodnews. Same validity coverage as the Swiss Travel Pass (except buses ofc) and mostly the same discounts.

Maybe Stechelberg - Mürren remains uncovered as you need to take the bus anyway. But there's still a very good way to get to Mürren : every 15 min at peak times, otherwise every 30 min !

To Stechelberg you would so or so need to use a Postauto. 
iMO the BLM is the more nice way to arrive in Mürren.

Tip: on your birthday you can go for free up to the Schilthorn! (Thx @runner.on.rails for the tip!)
