Interlaken & the Jungfrau Region itineraries

Jungfrau in a Day

Up to 3,454 m on the first trains of the morning, waterfalls in Lauterbrunnen on the way down, and both lakes from Harder Kulm at sunset. One day, all the headline sights.

A Lake Day, A Mountain Day

Day one is on the water: the Lake Brienz boat to Iseltwald and Giessbach Falls. Day two is the Jungfraujoch and the cliff walk at Grindelwald First. Base yourself near Interlaken Ost and travel light.

Three Days in the Valley

Stay in Lauterbrunnen and work outward: the waterfall valley, car-free Mürren and the Schilthorn, then the Männlichen ridge walk. For those who would rather walk and look up than queue for the Jungfraujoch.
