We visited Interlaken as part of a two-month driving trip in Europe in 2023.
We believe that Interlaken is one of the most beautiful parts of Switzerland, offering charming Swiss villages, lakes, mountains and fabulous walking trails.

Accommodation: Alphorn Hotel Bed & Breakfast, Interlaken
Accommodation in Switzerland is expensive and this accommodation is just over A$300 a night including breakfast, more than we would normally pay. We have a twin room on the second floor – Room 205. Nice fresh room – not overly large and bathroom very small. It has flat screen TV on wall, bedside tables and lamps and a desk built in at the window with two chairs. Charming host Christine is very helpful.
