This is a favorite activity of any tourist who is looking for an adrenaline rush as they admire the mountains that surround Interlaken. Breathe in the view and admire how the world seems much more peaceful when you’re gliding several feet above the ground feeling weightless.

Steep Hiking in the Swiss Alps

For people that are fond of hiking, you can enjoy steep hiking in the Swiss Alps as you hike up to Harder Kulm. If you are not big on hiking or strenuous activities, you can enjoy the same view by taking a train to the same location and enjoy the panoramic views along the way.

You can grab a bite or enjoy a glass of red wine and swiss cheese Crisp Rösti as you watch the sunset at the top of Harder Kulm.

For accommodation, the best place to stay would be Hostel Balmers. I stayed at Hostel Balmers and could not have expected a better stay.

Spectacular Lake Thun

Interlaken has two amazing Lakes called Lake Thun and Lake Brienz. You can plan ahead and enjoy activities around the lake like canoeing, paddle boarding, rafting, boating or simply enjoy your time at the beach.
