Summary
An introduction to Interlaken
Interlaken is also known as ‘the adventure capital of Switzerland’. As its name suggests, you’ll find it between two beautiful bodies of water, Lake Thun and Lake Brienz.
Swiss Adventure like no other
An adrenaline-filled Interlaken multi centre holiday may include canyoning, river rafting on the Lütschine, and one of the most scenic bungee jumps on Earth. If you’d prefer something a bit more relaxing, there are many amazing hiking trails through the mountains where you can take your time and enjoy the tranquillity of Swiss nature.
Take to the slopes in the Swiss alps
In the winter, Interlaken is used as a base by skiers who want to take to the slopes at the nearby resorts of Grindelwald, Wengen, and Mürren. The snow also provides a different dimension to the area’s incredible scenery, so even if you’re not taking part in any winter sports, looking out over the lakes and mountains will nourish your soul.
Journey through the mountains by rail
A journey on the Jungfrau Railway is remarkable from start to finish. It’s a two-hour ride to Jungfraujoch, Europe’s highest railway station. There’s a stop at Eismeer along the way with an unbelievable outlook.
What else is there to do in Interlaken?
While the mountains around Interlaken are majestic, there’s plenty to see and do in and around the town. For example, you can treat yourself to dip in a jacuzzi or saltwater pool while enjoying some of the best panoramic views, not just in the Bernese Oberland region but throughout the country. With breweries, gorgeous gardens, waterfalls and more on offer, on your Interlaken holiday you’ll have a sublime time in this scenic part of Switzerland.
