Interlaken is a breathtaking resort town in central Switzerland near the capital, Bern. Nestled between Lake Thun and Lake Brienz, Interlaken sits in a narrow valley where the Aare River flows gently through the city, bordered by charming old wooden houses and lush parkland. The surrounding mountains are rich with forests, alpine meadows, and glaciers, offering endless opportunities for outdoor enthusiasts — from hiking and paragliding in summer to skiing and snowboarding in winter.
The official language of Interlaken is German, but as a popular international destination, English is widely spoken in hotels, restaurants, and tourist facilities.
Interlaken has long been known as the adventure capital of Switzerland. Its central location makes it the perfect base for exploring the Bernese Oberland region and iconic mountain peaks like the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau.
