Main lakeside walkway linking Interlaken's two railway stations, with views of the Jungfrau, manicured gardens and park benches.

🕐 Open 24 hours

💡 Walk it at sunset when the mountains catch the alpenglow — the light changes fast, so go around 20:00 in summer.

Steep but rewarding 90-minute hike to a panoramic terrace overlooking Interlaken between Lake Thun and Lake Brienz.

🕐 Trail open 24 hours; viewing platform dawn to dusk

💡 For free entry, walk up instead of taking the funicular — the path starts behind the Interlaken Ost station and is unmarked but used by locals.

Turquoise lakefront with public swimming platforms, pebble beaches and a shore-side path leading to the Giessbach falls.
