Why this trip
Interlaken lies between Lake Thun and Lake Brienz, and children see the water first: turquoise, cold, full of swans. Behind it rise the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau. From June to September is the time for swimming, hiking and railway rides. The resort is regarded as a starting point for excursions into the mountains, from the Schilthorn via Mürren to the Aletsch Glacier, which counts among the great ice streams of the Alps.
For families such excursions are long and require an early start, so choose one day and leave the rest free. The Niederhorn railway from Beatenbucht takes you comfortably up a viewpoint mountain with family paths. In Grindelwald the Glacier Gorge beckons children who can already walk, with walkways along the ravine. The routes from the station to the lake are short and flat, ideal with a pushchair.
Grindelwald, Bern and Engelberg are the neighbours reachable by train and PostBus, which has the advantage with children that they get window seats. It is better to plan one base and small excursions than changing hotels. Swiss Vibes is happy to discuss your wishes in a video call.
