Interlaken Switzerland

Interlaken is a Swiss town and municipality in the Interlaken-Oberhasli administrative district in the canton of Bern. It is an important and well-known tourist destination in the Bernese Highlands region of the Swiss Alps, and the main transport gateway to the mountains and lakes of that region.

Tourism in Interlaken is as strong as it ever was. A walk along the town's main thoroughfare, the Hoheweg, will reveal many appealing gift shops and attractions. A peaceful stroll along the shoreline of Lake Thun is recommended, or perhaps a trip to the summit of the Harder Klum Mountain onboard the funicular railway named the Harderbahn.

For history buffs looking for Swiss heritage, the Tourist Museum of the Jungfrau Region (Touristik Museum der Jungfrauregion) on the Obere Gasse may be of interest. Others simply come here for the cross-country skiing and snowboarding in the winter months.

ouched between Lake Thun and Lake Brienz in the Bernese Highlands is the fabled resort of Interlaken. With a whole network of trains, funiculars, boats, cable-cars at your disposal, Interlaken can be your springboard for journeys into the formidable Bernese Alps, ruled by three immense peaks: Jungfrau, Eiger and Mönch.

You can ride the highest railway in Europe up to Jungfraujoch to see these monsters and the Aletsch Glacier in all their majesty. And in the resort there’s a mountain of things to do like steamboat trips to waterfalls, hikes, kayaking, swimming, canyoning and even paragliding, all in front an awe-inspiring backdrop.
