Lauterbrunnen

The tiny village of Lauterbrunnen is one of Switzerland’s untouched beauties. Its quiet roads wind between quaint communities, a picturesque town center, and breathtaking natural wonders, like the famous Staubbach and Trummelbach Falls. It’s the perfect place to explore on foot and friendly locals warmly welcome those visiting from out of town.
Travelers can sip steaming hot cups of coffee and sample rich Swiss chocolates made fresh at the family-owned shops that line the streets of Lauterbrunnen before venturing out into the village. More adventurous sorts can rent Interlaken bikes and ride through the scenic trails of Murren and Winteregg or hike up to Wengwald, where panoramic views of the Lauterbrunnen valley offer a memorable end to an easy two-hour trek.
