What's great about the Aares Gorge is that it can be visited rain or shine. You'll get a different perspective depending on the weather. Give yourself plenty of time here. It's about a mile walk (45-60 minutes) along the limestone gorge and through the tunnels. It's truly a unique experience that deserves a special trip. I've never seen anything quite like it. It really shows you the torrential power of glaciel water as it carves its way over time through the valley. There are 2 entrances with parking lots. We started at the west entrance and exited at the east side. There was so much to see in between (including a waterfall). There is also a view of cave entrances from the pathway that were built to house the military during WWII. Fortunately, they never had to use it. There are interesting facts displayed along the way. It's pretty much an easy walk until you get to the east side. There is more of an incline on your way up as well as some steps up the hill. Just plan your entrance accordingly if you have limited mobility. It worked out very well for us. We were rewarded with a beautiful view of the Alps when exiting at the east side. Our guide met us in the parking lot. You can return by train to your initial starting point as well. I also have one piece of advice that may be helpful to some. Don't even try to pronounce "Aareschlucht" if you're not proficient in German. It could come out sounding like another German word that is offensive. Lol! We were thankfully warned about it ahead of time. Just call it "Aare Gorge." Haha! I'm sure they here it all the time. We loved this experience so much!! There's so much to do here in the Canton of Bern. Make it a part of your trip when in Switzerland.

This was by far the easiest way of getting to Gimmelwald or Murren without hiking and it is the only way to the summit of the Schilthorn. The cable car takes about 6 minutes to get to Gimmelwald and about 12 to Murren. The summit is a 30 minute ride. You will need to stop at each stop and transfer to another cable car to go up higher. Buying tickets was easy and the associates speak multiple languages. We took the cable car to Murren and it was €22 round trip. We were also able to get off in Gimmelwald for a peek around the village. The staff are very friendly and each station has restrooms and are clean. The cars are a less than 20 minute drive from Interlaken on a beautiful mountain road. Try out this cable car and you won't be disappointed.

Taking the tram to the top took a good 20-25 minutes. We beelined for the ice cave which was exciting for the kids, one plays hockey and my girl figure skates so no biggie for them. I on the other hand was super careful not to slip walking on ice. I already broke my coccyx snow boarding once. I wasn't going to do it again at 10k ft elevation. Make sure to wear hiking shoes with good traction. It was very gloomy and cold that day, felt like winter because of the summer storm. We all braved going outside to do the cliff walk but the visibility was no more than 5ft, only my daughter and hubby got to the end of the suspension bridge. It felt like Mt Everest and we only had our last minute parkas and hoodies purchase on so my fingers were frozen popsicles. Our tickets also included the ice flyer but because we were going to be exposed to the frigid temp, we decided to ditch it and cozied up inside the restaurant for some hot cocoa. On our way down we got off Trübsee, explored the lake and got a little too close to the grazing cows, they do stink. Despite the crappy weather, it was an exciting adventure for the family.

Fun fact, they have wood plaques of HK singer/actress Gigi Leung plastered up in the hallways like she's Employee of the Month. At least, that's what I thought it was till I looked closer. Apparently it's a source of pride for the Swiss. Kidding. But seriously. What the hell? After moving on from Gigi's Mona Lisa plaques, we rode the gondola, which provides a 360º panoramic look at the powdery mountains and checked out the glacier cave at the top. I only wish I got to snowboard here.

Yelp Review 2026 #114:…read more When you stay in Interlaken, you have two options: stay close to Interlaken Ost or stay close to Interlaken West. Both have pros and cons depending on what you value. If you want a quiet area and plan to go to Harder Kulm, Grindelwald, Jungfrau, and Lauterbrunnen - stay close to Interlaken Ost. If you like shopping, lots of restaurant options, nightlife and plan to take a cruise to Lake Thun a stay close to Interlaken West. If you're taking a train to Lauterbrunnen or Grindelwald - be sure to pay attention to the labels on the floor. Everyone good on. The same train number but you don't want to hop on the wrong carriage. The train splits in Zweilütschinen. If you have 1st class ticket, you might want to slum it out in 2nd class on the right carriage or keep walking til you see a 1st class carriage and risk getting left behind! It's just one train ride, you'll live! On the way back to Interlaken Ost, there will be 1st vs 2nd class carriages. If you only paid for 2nd class tickets, do not hop on the 1st class carriage. Yes, there's a lot of people in 2nd class and you'll end up standing because there's no seat available but that doesn't give you the right to go to 1st class. There's always somebody checking your ticket. It made for good entertainment for me guessing who didn't have 1st class tickets but were in the 1st class carriage - I got 3/3 correct! It's always the ones who watch videos on speaker. This is where 1st class tickets become more obviously better. There's always seats in 1st class. It's quieter. There's no store, cafe, restaurant at the station per se. However, you'll find plenty around the station.

You can walk to any hotel in Engelberg from the train station. Trains go to Lucerne about once every hour. The town is cute and has plenty of little stores and restaurants. However, it's really small so not a lot to do besides skiing/hiking. Mt Titlis offers beautiful views and is a really nice place to ski. It's a bit tough for the beginners as majority of their runs are pretty bumpy and not very wide. However, you can still have fun at any level. Cool rotating gondola that takes you to the top is a must!

At the top level of the resting area, there is a hike to the top but due to the heavy snow I was unable to make it any further. There is also an ice cream shop on the 3rd floor. The ice cream is delicious in the ice cold weather. Overall, it was an amazing trip up and well worth my money. The view during the ride is unreal and absolutely worth looking at.

The experiences can vary from day to day (and season to season) since there are so many different activities and sights to see in the area. You could really spend a whole week here. We started our journey to Jungfraujoch from the Grindelwald Terminal via the Eiger Express. It's the fastest way to get to Eiger Glacier station. There are some amazing views of Grindelwald and the Eiger during this 15 minute ride. After that, we walked through the main part of town to take in the Alpine scenery all around us. There are many shops, restaurants, and hotels decorated with flowering plants. They could all be that beautiful postcard picture with the Swiss chalet and mountain backdrop. It's no wonder why this has become a very popular resort village. Even the views between the houses and shops were amazing. It was a dream come true. A place that we always wanted to visit together. A very happy place!

While many tourists will use the train year-round, it is also a form of daily efficient transportation for many between Grindelwald and Wengen. I visited the station on several occasions during a week of skiing. If you're planning to take the train to the Jungfrau, this stop is where you would switch. As a result, you'll see a variety of visitors in the train station area during the winter: locals, skiers, and non-skier tourists alike. If you are skiing, the station dumps you right next to the piste. A short walk will get you skiing (head towards the Coca Cola tipi). Whether you are skiing or not, there are several slopeside restaurants and bars that offer both indoor and outdoor dining/drinking options as well. One tip is if you are carrying skis across the tracks to start skiing, be careful not to drop your skis in the greasy part of the track as that grease may stick with you for a while (one of my friends mistakenly did this and had a mess on their coat later on). Whether you are skiing, hiking, or not, this really is a wonderful vista to take in and this train ride is memorable.
