The "not to miss" itinerary
First Day: Explore Grindelwald
Get ready for a full day in the heart of the Jungfrau Region. Grindelwald is a charming alpine town and the perfect hub for scenic hikes and unforgettable activities.
For a relaxed day:
Start by wandering through the picturesque streets of Dorfstrasse, where you’ll find shops and cozy cafes. Be sure to visit the Reformierte Kirche for some stunning views right from the village. From there, head to the Gletscherschlucht, a 35-minute walk from town. You can explore the canyon from above or head inside for a unique experience. Feeling adventurous? Try the 90m-high canyon swing!
Another must-do is the Erster Cliff Walk, a cable car ride away, offering panoramic mountain views. You can also try ziplining, mountain carts, or simply enjoy the breathtaking vistas. Check out our blog post “Besuchen Sie Grindelwald – zuerst” for more details.
For hikers:
Start at First and hike to Bachalpsee, one of the most scenic alpine lakes. If you’re up for a full-day challenge, continue to Schynige Platte for spectacular ridge views over Interlaken and lakes Brienz and Thun. Alternatively, explore trails near the Eiger, including the Eiger Trail and Eigergletscher to Männlichen. For those seeking thrills, try the Rotstock Via Ferrata.

Second Day: Lauterbrunnen – Valley of 72 Waterfalls
No trip to Interlaken is complete without visiting Lauterbrunnen, just 20 minutes away by train. This stunning valley is home to 72 waterfalls and offers incredible hiking opportunities.
Spend your morning exploring the village and walking through the valley. Once you’ve soaked in the views, take a cable car to visit Mürren, Gimmelwald, or Grutschalp. Each town has its charm and serves as a starting point for popular hikes like the Mountain View Trail or North Face Trail.

Third-Day: Harder Kulm – Interlaken’s Best Viewpoint
Harder Kulm is a must-see, offering some of the best panoramic views of Interlaken, Lake Brienz, and Lake Thun, all framed by the Swiss Alps.
Take the funicular to the top, or if you’re feeling energetic, hike up and enjoy the forest trail (approximately 3 hours round trip). You can also mix it up—take the funicular up and hike down. Don’t forget your guest card for discounts on transport!
At the top, relax with a drink and soak in the views. For more tips on making the most of your stay, check out our blog post “So holen Sie das Beste aus Ihrer Interlaken-Gästekarte heraus.”
The "sport & adrenaline" itinerary
Am Tag Ihrer Ankunft: Mieten Sie ein Fahrrad und erkunden Sie Interlaken
Sobald Sie in Ihrem Lieblingshostel eingecheckt haben, Balmers Herbergeeingecheckt hast, gehe auf unsere Website oder frage an der Reception nach all den verrückten Aktivitäten Sie können die Umgebung von Interlaken erkunden und Ihre Reise für die nächsten Tage buchen.
Wenn du alles gebucht hast, schnappe dir ein Fahrrad und mache eine Erkundungstour durch Interlaken. Wenn du früh genug ankommst, kannst du noch den Harder Kulm ist wahrscheinlich einer der am einfachsten zugänglichen Aussichtspunkte, um Thunersee und Brienzersee gleichzeitig mit Jungfrau, Mönch und Eiger zu bewundern.
Seien Sie jedoch nicht faul und kannst du auch nach oben wandern statt mit der Seilbahn zu fahren. Laut Beschilderung dauert es etwa 2h20min (aber wenn man fit ist, geht es auch schneller). Sie beginnt an der Talstation der Standseilbahn und führt durch den Wald.
First Day: Hang Gliding or Paragliding
You’ve seen the iconic photos of paragliders floating above Interlaken’s lakes—why not be one of them? Experience the thrill of paragliden oder hang gliding, taking off from the same spot and soaring through the skies with stunning views of the mountains and lakes.
Feel the adrenaline as your guide performs tricks before landing gracefully in Höhematte Park. It’s an unforgettable adventure you won’t want to miss.
Second Day: Canyoning or Cliff Jumping
From the skies to the water, day two is all about aquatic adventure!
For adrenaline seekers, canyoning is the ultimate choice. Slide into natural pools, rappel next to waterfalls, and jump from heights of up to 12 meters. Not ready for the extreme? Don’t worry—there are options for all levels.
If Canyoning isn’t your thing, head to Neuhaus, where you can rent a kayak. Paddle for about 45 minutes to reach a popular cliff-jumping spot with jumps as high as 14 meters. Learn more about the location in our blog post “Cliff Jumping.”
Third-Day: Chill Hike to Giessbach Falls
After all the action, it’s time for a more relaxed day. Take a free bus (with your Interlaken Guest Card) to Iseltwald, a charming village on Lake Brienz. From here, start the 3-hour round-trip hike to Giessbach Falls.
These 14-tiered waterfalls are a sight to behold and make for the perfect way to end your stay. Short on time? Take the boat back to Interlaken Ost.
