Interlaken – Swiss Action Between Lakes and Alps

Interlaken is centrally located in the Bernese Oberland, precisely between Lake Thun and Lake Brienz, serving as a natural gateway to experiences in the Swiss Alps. The town is world-renowned for its unique combination of dramatic alpine landscapes and easy access to some of Europe’s most iconic mountain adventures. From Interlaken, historic mountain railways depart for Jungfraujoch – Top of Europe – where glaciers, eternal snow, and panoramic views of the Aletsch Glacier await. The area is particularly popular for paragliding, where you soar above the lakes with Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau as a backdrop, and for canyoning in the narrow gorges around the Grimsel and Lütschine rivers. Interlaken is also known for its well-organized infrastructure, making extreme activities accessible even to first-time travelers. Summer offers lush valleys, hiking trails, and crystal-clear lakes, while winter opens the door to nearby ski resorts like Grindelwald and Wengen. Interlaken combines Swiss precision, magnificent nature, and authentic alpine experiences at a pace that suits both adventure and relaxation.
