Interlaken, meaning 'between the lakes,' lies between Lake Thun and Lake Brienz and serves as the gateway to the Alps. As a must-pass transit hub to Jungfrau (Top of Europe) and Schilthorn (007 filming location), it is a world-famous outdoor sports destination. Take a cogwheel train to the summit, or gaze at the snow-capped mountains from Höheweg. Enjoy a boat cruise on the two lakes, and admire the Giessbach Falls and the scenic lakeside villages. The cuisine features fondue, raclette, Alpine macaroni, and handmade chocolate, best paired with local craft beer for an exceptional flavour.
