Guest User: The hotel is very clean and spacious. You can see a beautiful sunrise over the mountain from the breakfast room. Bus stop is just across the hotel, a few stops to Thun main station, very convenient especially if you have swiss pass. The staffs are very nice and helpful. The only drawback for me is the beds that are not thick/hard enough (same with many hotels in Switzerland) but overall a very pleasant staying.
Gwattstrasse 1
From € 60
Anonymous User: Except for the bed, which is a small bed, the bathroom is well hidden and the overall size is relatively small. However, the hotel is in an excellent location, on the side of the road but not very noisy. When you walk out, there is a lake in front of you, so you can see the scenery of the lake and mountains.

2027079712: Good location, not big city
Gewerbestrasse 4
From € 156
Guest User: Value for money but you need a car in order to access the hotel as it is at the top of the hill. Should offer free access to the museum for the view as the hotel guest though but overall great experience.
Schlossberg 2
From € 196
QIUHONG: The century-old shop is located in the city center. The first floor of the residence is a coffee restaurant. It is not far from the train station. It is the back entrance of the Thun Castle across the road. The entrance of the small door goes along the stairs to the castle. Western-style breakfast is abundant. The room is big with three beds, clean and hygienic, comfortable mattresses, high-end bathroom decoration, but there is no elevator to check luggage to the third floor!

Girls! Just got back from Switzerland. Summer in Interlaken is absolutely amazing! This place is like God spilled a palette of colors. The two lakes have different shades—one Tiffany blue, the other peacock blue. I didn’t want to leave! 🏔️ Amazing location The guesthouse is right in the center of Interlaken, just a few steps from the east station, but the soundproofing is excellent—no train noise at all. The balcony faces Höhematte Park, a huge lawn area. Lying in bed, you can see the three peaks of the Jungfrau region. I screamed the moment I opened the curtains in the morning! 🚂 Best way to get around Tested and proven! You must buy the Swiss Travel Pass. Four days cost about 280 CHF (latest price for 2026). You get 25% off Jungfrau tickets, free rides to Harder Kulm viewing platform, and unlimited lake cruises! Download the SBB Mobile app—it shows real-time train schedules and lets you buy tickets. Swiss trains are so punctual that if it says 3:15, it’s exactly 3:15, down to the second! ⛰️ Must-do hardcore routes Day 1: Head straight to Jungfrau! Take the train from the east station to Grindelwald, then transfer to the Eiger Express. The new V-shaped cable car opened in 2024 is super smooth. It takes only 15 minutes to reach the Eiger Glacier station, then switch to the cogwheel train for a 40-minute ride to the summit. Round-trip tickets cost 235–260 CHF in peak season. It’s pricey but totally worth it! The Sphinx observation deck offers a 360-degree unobstructed view. The Aletsch Glacier lies right below, and on a clear day, you can see France and Germany! Day 2: Have some thrills at First! Take the cable car from Grindelwald up to First. The First Cliff Walk along the cliff is free. The glass walkway hanging in midair is nerve-wracking but perfect for photos. For more excitement, try the First Flyer zipline, First Glider, or mountain cart racing down from the top—so much fun! Each activity costs about 29–35 CHF. Get there early to line up because popular rides sell out by noon. 🚢 Lake cruises on both lakes are a must Lake Thun and Lake Brienz have completely different vibes! Lake Thun offers an elegant route, departing from the west station pier. It stops at Spiez, Oberhofen Castle, and ends at Thun old town. The whole trip takes 2 hours and 10 minutes. Don’t miss Spiez! The angle of the lake bay perfectly captures the castle and snowy mountain reflections—every shot looks like wallpaper! Lake Brienz is more natural and pristine, with unreal mint-green water. The cruise leaves from the east station pier and takes about 1 hour to reach Brienz town. You can get off at Giessbach Falls and take Europe’s oldest mountain railway up to Mount Rothorn. The vintage steam train against the Alpine backdrop creates an unforgettable atmosphere! 🌄 Sunset at Harder Kulm is a must Right next to the east station, the cable car takes 8 minutes to the top at 1,322 meters elevation, overlooking all of Interlaken and both lakes. The three peaks of Jungfrau are right in front of you. The observation deck extends into a platform with transparent glass underfoot—thrilling and perfect for photos! It’s open until 5 PM in summer. I recommend going up at 4 PM to watch the sunset turn the snow-capped mountains pink. That moment made me cry. 💡 Practical tips Switzerland is really expensive. Bottled water in supermarkets costs 2–3 CHF, so bring a water bottle to fill with free Alpine spring water! In July, daylight lasts very long—darkness only falls around 9 PM, so you can make the most of your day. Sunscreen! Sunscreen! Sunscreen! The high altitude means strong UV rays. I didn’t apply any on the first day and got sunburned. It’s below freezing at the Jungfrau summit, so even in July, bring a windbreaker or light down jacket.
🇨🇭 Many people visiting Lake Thun head to the southern shore towns, such as around Spiez · 🚡 This time, we stayed halfway up the north shore in Beatenberg, and with the Swiss Pass, we could take the downhill cable car to the lakeside for free, so we decided to spend a day exploring the north shore of Lake Thun · 🏘️ The towns of Merligen, Gunten, and Oberhofen on the north shore are quieter and more local compared to the south shore, with better views directly facing the Alps · 🏰 There aren’t any particularly stunning spots along this line, so there were almost no other tourists along the way. The most iconic site might be Oberhofen Castle, a castle built by the water, though unfortunately it’s closed to the public in winter · 🚌 Bus 21 connects these towns perfectly from Interlaken to Thun · If you enjoy slow travel, the north shore really offers that “Swiss lakeside living” vibe ·
🌄 Many tourists in Thun just take a few photos by the old town river and leave, but the best view to appreciate the entire city and the distant Alps is from the tower of Thun Castle. · 📍 Photo Spot You can climb to the top floor inside the castle, where the four corner towers serve as viewing platforms facing four directions. · From the southeast tower, you can see three layers of scenery at once: 1️⃣ Foreground The red-roofed old town of Thun and the river 2️⃣ Midground The blue Lake Thun 3️⃣ Background The snowy Alps · 🖼️ The towers of Thun Castle have been preserved since the 12th century, so the doorways are so small that it’s hard to enter even with a backpack. Viewing Thun from here feels like looking at a landscape that has existed for hundreds of years. ·

Walking along the shore of Thun Lake, the snow-capped mountains seem to be right before your eyes, and the lake water is as still as a mirror, reflecting the quietest moments of life to you. 📍 Route: Grindelwald → Spiez (board the boat) → Thun (explore) → Return to Spiez (stay) 🗓️ Date: August 31, 2025 🏨 Accommodation: La Belle Vue Boutique Hotel & Cafe (by Spiez Lake) ⸻ Itinerary and Cost Details From Grindelwald to Spiez Train takes about 45–55 minutes, ticket price ranges from 10 to 25 CHF. If you have a Swiss Travel Pass, this segment is completely free. Boat from Spiez to Thun The journey takes about 45–60 minutes, ticket price is around 36 CHF, also included in the Swiss Travel Pass with no extra charge. The lake scenery on this route is definitely worth experiencing. Thun Castle Entrance Fee Ticket costs about 12 CHF, free entry with Swiss Travel Pass. Return from Thun to Spiez By train, it takes about 15 minutes one way, ticket price 6–10 CHF; if you choose to return by boat, it is also free with the pass. 👉 If you hold a Swiss Travel Pass, this entire Thun Lake trip is almost free, and you only need to pay for the short train ride from Thun to Spiez (6–10 CHF). Spiez: The Starting Point by the Lake Descending from Grindelwald, the mountain shadows fade and the lake light draws near. Arriving in Spiez at noon under bright sunshine, the hotel is right by the lake, and opening the window you can see sailboats gliding on the water. After dropping off your luggage, it’s just a few minutes’ walk to the pier, just in time to catch the boat to Thun. ⸻ 45 Minutes on Thun Lake: The Most Beautiful Route Thun Lake is known as Switzerland’s “Sapphire,” with turquoise-blue water that looks like the sky melting into the lake. On the route from Spiez to Thun, you can see the white peaks of Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau from the bow of the boat—clear and breathtaking. Along the way, three lakeside castles are also worth noting: Oberhofen with its tower spire rising from the lake, Hünegg surrounded by woods, and Schadau Castle with its pink walls and white towers. It feels like sitting inside a slow fairy tale movie. ⸻ First Glimpse of Thun: A Quiet Small Town and the Aare River When the boat docks, Thun Castle basks in the sunlight, and the Aare River flows through the town, rushing but not noisy. Thun combines the grandeur of the Bernese Highlands with the warm life of a small town. ⸻ Thun Castle: The Best Spot to Overlook the Lake Climb the stone steps, and the castle’s white walls shine under the sun. From the tower, the entire Thun Lake spreads beneath your feet: the lake surface, orange rooftops, the Aare River, and distant snow-capped mountains together form the most iconic Swiss scene. Free entry with Swiss Travel Pass. ⸻ Church, Old Town, and Riverside Coffee Aroma Thun Church is right next to the castle, its clock tower shadow falling on the square. Walking down leads to the old street, where the river is divided by small bridges, and many cafes line both banks. When the wind blows, you can smell chocolate and coffee. This place feels more lived-in and quieter than Lucerne, without being interrupted by crowds. ⸻ Sitting by the Riverside for a While Before leaving Thun, I sat on a bench by the Aare River. Sunlight filtered through the leaves onto me; some people were fishing, some reading, some daydreaming. The true beauty of travel is probably this kind of unhurried time. ⸻ Accommodation: La Belle Vue Boutique Hotel & Cafe Located by Spiez Lake, a five-minute walk to the pier. Rooms have lake views, and at night you can hear the gentle clinking of masts by the lake. Breakfast and coffee are excellent, making it a highly cost-effective small boutique hotel in the Spiez area. Room rates range from 180 to 260 CHF, and advance booking is necessary during peak season. ⸻ Summary of Transportation · Grindelwald → Spiez: Train (45–55 minutes) · Spiez → Thun: Boat (45–60 minutes, best scenery) · Thun → Spiez: Train or boat · All routes are included in the Swiss Travel Pass, only the train from Thun to Spiez requires a small additional fee ⸻ Best Photo Tips · Board the boat from Spiez to Thun in the afternoon for the best lighting · Thun Castle from 3 PM to 5 PM offers the best light ⸻ Practical Tips · Thun Lake can be windy; bring a jacket even in summer · Thun’s old town has many cafes with reasonable prices; consider having a meal there · When taking photos on the boat deck, avoid occupying space for too long · August to September is peak season; book hotels in advance ⸻ Thun is not a “must-check-in” spot, but its gentleness and tranquility will make you fall in love with it unknowingly. If you want to slow down your trip in Switzerland, I would recommend Thun Lake to you.
Starting from Geneva, Geneva Canton, what I thought would be an ordinary trip turned out to be full of surprises, as if stepping into a hybrid world of fairy tales and movies! 🏞️ Thun Castle & Thun Town Thun became one of my favorite towns on this trip. Nestled by Lake Thun, its streets are lined with colorful houses and flower-filled balconies, along with a charming wooden bridge and hidden fountains. At the heart of the town stands Thun Castle, with its white walls and red roof. Climbing the castle tower offers a breathtaking panoramic view of the entire lake region. 🌟 Exclusive experience recommendation: Sit at a café in the old town, order a cappuccino, and watch the snow-capped mountains shimmer in the distance—100% therapeutic. 🚞 Jungfraujoch – Top of Europe Riding the world's highest-altitude cogwheel train to the summit of Jungfraujoch was the most spectacular part of this journey. Departing from Interlaken, the train winds through snow-capped mountain tunnels and glacial platforms, finally reaching the "Top of Europe" at 3,454 meters above sea level. You can visit the Sphinx Observatory, standing on the edge of the Alpine ridge to overlook the glaciers, or step into the Ice Palace and walk through ice tunnels adorned with crystal sculptures—like entering the real world of "Frozen." 🌟 Note: The thin air at the summit may be challenging, so take it slow—every step is worth savoring. 🌲 Lauterbrunnen Valley, Interlaken District Dubbed the "most beautiful valley in Switzerland," it lives up to its reputation. The entire valley feels like a place where fairies dwell: 72 waterfalls cascade vertically from towering cliffs, with mist swirling through the valley—serene yet awe-inspiring. The most spectacular among them is Staubbach Falls, plunging nearly 300 meters directly into the valley, making it one of Europe's highest free-falling waterfalls. You can walk along the trail behind the falls and feel the power of the spray rushing toward you. 🌊 Trümmelbach Falls This is Lauterbrunnen's most mysterious spot. Ten waterfalls are hidden inside the mountain, formed by glacial meltwater, roaring through the rocks like nature's underground symphony. After taking an elevator inside the falls, you can stand in narrow stone caves and watch the waterfalls pour down beneath you—deafening but utterly mesmerizing. One of the few "internal mountain waterfalls" open to the public in the world—highly recommended! 📌 Final thoughts: This isn't a traditional "checklist tour of Switzerland" but a journey into the intersection of nature, culture, and dreams. What amazed me most wasn't just the snow-capped mountains and lakes, but the hidden beauty waiting quietly to be discovered.
Adelboden is a classic Bernese Oberland chalet village with a global ski-racing name. It sits at the foot of the Wildstrubel and offers the huge Adelboden-Lenk ski area, plus excursions to the Engstligen Falls and the dramatic Cholerenschlucht gorge.  The village lies at 1,353 m.  Getting there is straightforward. The village has no train station, and the nearest one is in Frutigen, about a 30-minute bus ride away.  The train takes about 45 minutes from Bern, and buses also connect from Spiez and Kandersteg.  Most people outside Switzerland only hear about Adelboden in January, when the FIS Alpine Ski World Cup takes over the Chuenisbärgli slope. For the rest of the winter, it is a quiet, heavily intermediate-focused resort. In winter, the choices are broad. More than 200 km of interconnected slopes cater to all levels.  The area has 36 mountain restaurants and bars, the highest density in Switzerland.  Engstligenalp is a high plateau with reliable snow and the best freeride terrain, and Tschentenalp is the local mountain above the village, good for training slopes and winter walking.  The loop trail to Tschentenalp is the most popular winter hike.  Winter activities include 14 km of prepared sledding tracks, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing.  In summer, it turns green. More than 300 km of hiking, walking, and theme trails  lead to the 600 m deep Engstligen Falls.  The Cholerenschlucht gorge is an 8 km, 2.5-hour hike from the village.  There is also an adventure park and a beginner via ferrata at Engstligenalp. Pro tips: If the lower slopes are struggling for snow, go to Engstligenalp.  For most of the area, the season finishes around 25 April, with limited skiing until May.  Oey suits families who want to get straight onto the main lifts, while the village centre suits walking to dinner.  Book accommodation early for the January World Cup weekend, wear layers, and check lift schedules before you go. #Adelboden #SwissAlps #BerneseOberland #Chuenisbarglii #SkiSwitzerland #EngstligenFalls #WinterHiking #SwissChalet #Wildstrubel #SummerHiking #TripcomTravel #TravelSwitzerland

Oeschinensee is one of the most beautiful mountain lakes in the Bernese Oberland. It is the western gateway to the Jungfrau-Aletsch UNESCO World Heritage Site.  Take the Lötschberger train from Bern, Thun, or Spiez directly to Kandersteg, then the gondola to the Oeschinen upper station.  The walk from Kandersteg train station to the gondola valley station takes around 10-15 minutes.  You cannot drive directly to the lake, so you have to either take the gondola and continue on foot, or hike all the way up.  The hike from Kandersteg takes about 1.5 hours, whereas from the mountain station it is a walk of around 25 minutes.  In summer, the lake is perfect for an outdoor day. Swimming, fishing, and a turn at the oars on a rowing boat are all on offer.  The water is usually cold, though in warm periods it can reach about 20°C.  There are free grilling areas around the lake, and firewood is available from the nearby restaurants.  For a view of the lake from above, hike to Heuberg, a steep trail from the mountain station via Läger.  A thrilling summer toboggan run is located right next to the upper station.  Winter is just as magical. The lake often freezes, and you can walk on the ice on a designated path. The winter season runs from December to mid-March, and no snowshoes are needed for the 30-minute snowy walk from the gondola.  There are two winter hiking trails, and you can watch ice fishers and then warm up by the fireplace at the Berghotel Oeschinensee.  You can also sled from the mountain station down to the lake.  The 3.5 km sledging course is a lot of fun.  Pro tips: If there is a risk of avalanches or the ice is not thick enough, the circular trail on the lake stays closed,  so always check conditions. The trail between the lake and Kandersteg is closed to hikers in winter because it is covered in skiers,  so take the gondola. Parking at the gondola valley station fills up quickly in peak season,  so consider arriving by train. Go early for the best light and the fewest crowds. Wear sturdy shoes in summer and waterproof boots with good grip in winter, and bring layers. #Oeschinensee #Kandersteg #BernerOberland #SwissAlps #MountainLake #WinterWalk #IceWalk #HikingSwitzerland #UNESCO #Sledding #TripcomTravel #TravelSwitzerland
The town of Spiez on Lake Thun is an absolutely charming place to visit. It is backed by mountains, faces vineyards and, most magnificently, is crowned by a splendid castle. The Niederhorn mountain range above the lake stretches all the way to the Bernese Alps, creating a magnificent panorama. The mild climate and bright sunshine make it an ideal starting point for exploring the many famous tourist attractions in the Bernese Oberland or Valais. Spiez Castle is a highlight here, as is the castle gardens. From the castle, you can enjoy a magnificent view of the lake and the surrounding area. Likewise, a detour to the castle church is worthwhile. There are many hiking and cycling trails around Spiez. In addition, the neighboring cities of Thun and Interlaken are also great for day trips. Last but not least, the Bernese Oberland is easily accessible from Spiez.
NachtischWe first took a train from Interlaken to Spez, and then took a boat from Spez to Thun. Lake Thunersee is known as God's left eye. I personally think it is a little worse than Lake Brienz, God's right eye. Lake Thun is greener, while Brienz is bluer. Of course, Lake Thun is also very beautiful, especially with the buildings and natural scenery on both sides. If you take a boat, it is free with a Swiss pass. However, there are few seats in the second-class cabin, and it is a bit cold to sit outside. It is recommended to wear more clothes. From Thun back to Interlaken, we chose to take the bus, and we can see different beautiful scenery along the way.
横竖是二温小迪施皮茨城堡坐落于图恩湖的岸边，是一座保存完好的中世纪城堡。城堡拥有一处私人花园，可以饱览整个图恩湖的美景。因为其门窗布局很像中文的“囧”字，所以当这个设定成立后，就再也拔不出来了，怎么看都是一个戴着帽子的😳，实在令人捧腹！
NachtischThe package is good for value. Transport catered. The gliders are professional and very assuring.
Anonymous userInterlaken is definitely a holiday paradise. Overlooking the Jungfraujoch from Herweg Street is a great enjoyment in life and a must-visit place. I felt the idyllic life here, which was definitely worth the trip!
爱梦媛The experience was great. The little car went up and down, and when you got to the top, it was snowing heavily. It looked really cool. The prices at the cafe in the attraction were also reasonable. It was so peaceful to have a cup of coffee while watching the snow fall.
Anonymous userJungfraujoch – Top of Europe is one of Switzerland’s most spectacular mountain destinations, offering an unforgettable experience high in the Swiss Alps. Surrounded by magnificent snow-covered peaks, vast glaciers, and breathtaking alpine scenery, the journey to the summit is an adventure itself. The panoramic views from the top are truly mesmerizing, especially on a clear day when the mountains seem to stretch endlessly into the horizon. Walking through the snowy landscape feels like entering a winter wonderland. The impressive Aletsch Glacier adds even more beauty to the experience. Jungfraujoch is a must-visit destination for travelers who love mountains, snow, photography, and extraordinary natural landscapes.
Hossain Hoq ProhorThe last boat from Interlaken East Station to Lake Brienz was at 15:07, and when we went there, the boat had just left. The staff taught us to take the bus to Brienz, and then catch the boat at 16:40, and take the boat from Brienz back to Interlaken. We bought a second-class Swiss pass, which allows free boat rides. There are not many seats in the second-class cabin, but there are more open-air seats. If you are afraid of the cold, you can get on the boat earlier. I sat in the restaurant at first and thought I had to consume, but after sitting for a while, I realized that there was no mandatory requirement.
横竖是二温小迪Purchased package tickets including attractions must be exchanged for paper tickets at the manual counter before use. Package tickets must be purchased at the foot of the mountain; tickets for attractions on the mountain are not sold at the designated areas.
Anonymous userYou can enter the Thun Castle for free, but the museum inside is charged. You can visit the museum for free with the Swiss pass. The museum is average. I don't recommend buying a ticket to visit it without a pass. The interior of the castle is just the atrium. There are no rooms to visit. I feel that the exterior is better than going in. There is a small path where you can take pictures of the distant view. We went there in the afternoon and saw the Jesus light.
