St. Beatus Caves / St.Beatushöhle

This popular cave system features lit pathways leading through tunnels & chambers, plus a museum.

St Beatus Caves are, without a doubt, one of the most impressive tourist attactions near the lakes of Interlaken and Thun.

On arrival in the car park your adventure begins; it is just a short walk to the caves through the forest, over waterfalls which carve through the rock before plunging into the lake below. Upon reaching the caves, a 1000metre underground journey begins along a safe and well-lit pathway, where every turn reveals a new and breathtaking panorama. Within the St Beatus Caves more than 14km of tunnels have already been explored. You will discover a land locked in time; tunnels, little caves and enormous halls, stalactites and stalagmites formed by nature itself.
