| Calling all adventurers! Interlaken, the explorer’s playground, awaits. This Swiss getaway is packed with dazzling scenery, and scream-your-pants-off adventures, ideal for adrenaline junkies and romantics alike. |
| The best way to experience Interlaken is a highly-contested national debate. Is it skiing down the powdered slopes from the top of Jungfrau? Taking a relaxing stroll through flowered fields? Soaring a thousand meters above a sparkling lake? You’ll have to decide for yourself. |
| Interlaken, Switzerland |
| N 46.68° / E 7.86° |

| #FunFact |
| The name Interlaken means "between two lakes" which is a fitting description. You can find this town nestled between Lake Brienz and Lake Thun, high in the Swiss alps. |

| Interlaken transforms between summer and winter, and both seasons are equally beautiful. So how do you choose? Snowy peaks or summer breezes? Guess you'll have to plan two trips! |

| Live on the Edge |
| Have you ever been on a balance beam? Well, this trail is a little like that, only 1500 meters up. The Hardergrat Trail runs 27km between Interlaken and Brienz along a dizzying ridge. This hike is definitely not for beginners, but offers stunning views of the surrounding Alpine peaks that are well worth the shaking muscles. |

| Beers on Me |
| You know what goes great with Interlaken? Beer. It’s Switzerland, after all. To get a taste of the town, try The Three Tells Irish Pub. With a great outdoor seating area, this pub is the perfect place to grab a glass and meet some locals. |
| #Nightcap |
| Try ordering a coffee with Schnapps. This particular drink has a few different names, like schümli pflümli and kaffeefertig. It’s the perfect bedtime drink. |

| Choo Choo! |
| With no nearby national airports, it’s a bit of a journey into Interlaken. The best way to travel is by train. You won’t be able to take your eyes off the windows as you climb through dizzyingly beautiful scenery. You can catch trains from Zurich, Geneva, Basel, Berne, and Lucerne into one of Interlaken’s two stations. |
