Here you can relax in the garden of the mountain restaurant and take in the magnificent view of Interlaken and the surrounding mountains.
TRUMMELBACH* falls. This is a cascade of 10 glacier fed waterfalls inside the mountain. The Trummelbach falls drains the glacier of the Eiger, Monch, and Jungfrau mountains. In full flow the water gushes down at some 18,000 liters per second bringing with it over 20,000 tons of boulders and debris per year. Trummelbach falls is the only glacier fed waterfall in Europe inside a mountain and still accessible to the public. (3 Hours).
SHILTHORN - PIZ GLORIA. Of James Bond fame, this breathtaking Cableway is the longest in the Bernese Oberland. At the summit 10,000 ft the Piz Gloria revolving restaurant provides the perfect vantage point for magnificent views of over 200 mountain peaks. On a clear day you can see Mt Blanc and Pilatus and beyond (4-5 Hours).
JUNGFRAUJOCH - TOP OF EUROPE ( World Heritage area UNESCO )(W)is the highest railway station in Europe, 3454m/11333ft. Probably the most famous train journey in Switzerland. A thrilling tour to the Alpine wonderland of snow and ice which should not be missed. The beautiful scenery of meadows and pastures changes as the train climbs inside the Eiger and emerges among snowcapped mountains, Glaciers and snow fields. At the summit you'll find an Observatory, Research centre, exhibition, Ice Palace and Restaurant. Remember to take with you sun/snow glasses, adequate clothing and flat shoes. This trip is not suitable for anyone with asthma or heart condition.The trip of a lifetime! (6-7 Hours)

BALLENBERG (Cultural open air Museum) near Brienz, is an open air museum of Swiss houses from each region of Switzerland and various other ancient buildings restored and rebuilt as they were many years ago. Spread out over 130 acres, it gives an insight into the way the Swiss used to live.

MEIRINGEN is Home to the Meringue, but this village is also a beautiful location where Sherlock Holmes finally caught up with his arch-enemy at the Reichenbach falls. Now you can take a funicular to the falls. or visit the Aarecchlucht, a geological crevasse where the only way out for all the upper alpine water is through the Aarecchlucht.
