The mountains are calling

Interlaken’s local mountain, the Harder Kulm, offers its visitors breathtaking views. At the “Two-Lakes-Bridge”, located at 1322 m above sea level, visitors are enthralled by the panoramic views of Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau as well as Lake Thun and Brienz. Both in winter and summer, Interlaken is a paradise for hikers. Visitors with good eyesight might even spot ibexes, chamoises, groundhogs and golden eagles on the Niederhorn and the Schynige Platte. An adventure not to be missed is a trip with Switzerland’s only steam rack railway which will take you to the top of the Brienzer Rothorn. Mystical adventures can be found in the “St. Beatus” caves at Lake Thun. Take an underground journey and discover giant stalactites and stalagmites, enormous halls and deep ravines.

Kayaking in winter

Kayaking in winter is everything except cold. Warming drysuits guarantee an experience of next-level comfort on the wintry Lake Brienz. Something that Dave Storey discovered for himself. He shows his guests steep rock faces, mystical and moody views and the power of nature.

Eye to eye with an ibex
