Interlaken

Harder Kulm
Take the funicular up to Harder Kulm, Interlaken's "Top of Interlaken," for stunning panoramic views of the Jungfrau, Eiger, and Mönch mountains, along with Lake Thun and Lake Brienz.

Paragliding
Experience the thrill of paragliding over Interlaken, offering a bird’s-eye view of the surrounding mountains, lakes, and lush landscapes—a true adrenaline rush in the heart of the Alps.

Lake Thun & Lake Brienz
Explore the crystal-clear waters of Lake Thun and Lake Brienz with boat cruises or lakeside hikes. Both lakes offer scenic beauty, charming villages, and plenty of opportunities for outdoor adventures.
Interlaken is where the mountains meet the madness. Seriously, this place is an adrenaline junkie’s dream. It’s like Switzerland decided to create a playground for thrill-seekers and just went all out. Sandwiched between Lake Thun and Lake Brienz, it’s the perfect basecamp for epic adventures.
Feel like you’re touching the sky? Take the train up to Jungfraujoch. They call it the “Top of Europe” for a reason. You’ll be standing on a glacier, surrounded by snow-capped peaks, and feeling like you’re on top of the world. It’s the kind of experience that’ll leave you speechless.
If you’re more of a hands-on kind of person, there’s no shortage of ways to get your heart racing. Paragliding, skydiving, skiing – you name it, Interlaken’s got it. Imagine soaring through the sky, with the Alps as your backdrop. Or skiing down pristine slopes, feeling the wind whip past your face. It’s pure exhilaration.
If you need a break from the adrenaline rush? Cruise on Lake Thun or Lake Brienz. These lakes are like giant, sparkling jewels surrounded by mountains. Picture yourself on a boat, sipping a glass of wine, and soaking up the scenery. It’s the perfect way to recharge before your next adventure.
And then there’s Trümmelbach Falls. This isn’t your average waterfall. It’s a hidden gem tucked inside a mountain. Imagine rushing water carving its way through rock, creating a mesmerizing spectacle. It’s like nature’s own water park, but way cooler.
After all that excitement, you’ll need to refuel. Swiss fondue is a must-try. It’s cheesy, gooey goodness that will warm you up from the inside out. And don’t forget to try some traditional Alpine dishes. They’re hearty, flavorful, and the perfect way to end a day of adventure.
When you need a breather from all the action, head to Höhematte Park. It’s a green oasis in the heart of Interlaken. Pack a picnic, find a shady spot, and just chill. It’s the perfect place to unwind and soak up the mountain air.
Interlaken is more than just a place; it’s a feeling. It’s about pushing your limits, embracing the outdoors, and creating memories that will last a lifetime. So what are you waiting for? Book Switzerland vacations and get ready for the adventure of your life.

We had a fantastic experience working with The Travel Byrds travel agency! From start to finish, everything was handled efficiently and thoughtfully. Krista made sure we had dinner reservations at a variety of restaurants, provided plenty of detailed information about excursions, and ensured every part of our trip was well organized. We experienced zero travel issues during our stay, which made the entire vacation completely stress-free. This ended up being one of our best family vacations yet, and we truly appreciate the care and attention Krista put into every detail.Posted on Joan NathanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Maggie with The Travel Byrds was amazing! She took great care to make sure every step of our international vacation was perfect. She sent several emails explaining the currency and customs of each country. Including tipping protocols. She made sure all of our documents were current and ready to go. I cringed about downloading another app for this trip. No regrets!! We checked the app every morning and every night while out of the country. Our itinerary was clearly outlined and so easy to navigate. We actually looked forward to checking the outline every day. Our international return flight was cancelled. It was Maggie who notified us immediately! (Not the airline company, not the excursion company!). She secured a return flight back to the U.S. before the other companies let us know about the cancellation! Top notch service from start to finish. I am excited and calm about our next out of country trip in August 2026. I know she will be monitoring all aspects of that holiday break. Thank you, Maggie!Posted on Justin WolfTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent experience with this company and specifically with Haley. Organized an amazing NYE trip outside of the states quickly, cost effective and fun for the whole family. Will use again!Posted on Quinlyn SchultzTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Maggie made it so easy planning our Honeymoon!
