Interlaken

Interlaken

Nestled between two lakes and surrounded by majestic peaks, this resort offers mountain railways, scenic walking routes, and historic paddle steamer rides.

Interlaken’s setting between Lake Thun and Lake Brienz, with the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau beyond, has long made it one of the best-known resorts in the Bernese Oberland. From here, mountain railways climb to the Jungfraujoch and a dense network of walking routes extends across the surrounding landscape. Paddle steamers still cross both lakes, adding a further historical touch to the scenery. It is a place designed as much for looking as for moving through the mountains.
