The holiday you have dreamed of begins here at the uniquely beautiful region of Interlaken between the lakes Thuner and Brienzersee. This wonderful location has long attracted those who love a truly remarkable setting to make their holiday special and it has attracted many thousands of visitors from around the world. The excellent rail and road connections ensure that Interlaken's guests have an enormous range of the most attractive destinations to choose from and explore in and around town. The finest of all these attractions is undoubtedly the 3454 m. high Jungfraujoch and the Schilthorn with its rotating panorama restaurant 'Piz Gloria'. We have an immense range of wonderful attractions including the Beatus Caves above the Thunersees, the Trümmelbach Glacier Waterfall in Lauterbrunnental or the Alpine garden on the Schynigen Plateau.
