Interlaken’s own mountain can be ascended in little more than ten minutes via a funicular.

In that short space of time you’ll climb more than 730 metres in a car with large windows showing the full beauty of the mountainous landscapes.

At the upper station, at an elevation of 1322 metres an exhilarating scene will be laid out before you, from Lake Brienz and Lake Thun far below to the nearby Emmental Alps and the sky-scraping Bernese Alps like Eiger and Jungrau in the distance.
