Harder Kulm

Explore the idyllic Bernese Oberland and the magnificent Jungfrau mountain region on a full-day tour from Zurich. Your day includes free time to explore the famous mountain resort of Grindelwald and a visit to Lauterbrunnen. Journey through the countryside to Interlaken in the heart of the Bernese Oberland. After orientation, continue to Grindelwald, also known as “Glacier Village.” Lookout points provide stunning views of the impressive mountainscape, including the triple peaks of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau. Opt for a ride on the aerial cableway to Mt. First and brave the thrilling First Cliff Walk by Tissot, a 40-meter suspension bridge high above the valley. Unwind at a cozy mountain restaurant with stunning views while savoring a delicious Swiss meal. For adventure seekers, hike to the picturesque Lake Bachalpsee (6 km round trip, 1.5–2 hours, moderate incline) or take in breathtaking panoramas from the "First View" platform. For a different adventure, explore Glacier Canyon, a breathtaking natural marvel where glacial waters have carved deep, dramatic gorges over millennia. Or, take a nostalgic cable car ride up to Mount Pfingstegg, where stunning panoramic views and exciting activities await. Next, travel by bus with your tour guide to Lauterbrunnen, a postcard-perfect village tucked between sheer cliffs and cascading waterfalls. Home to 72 waterfalls, this enchanting valley once inspired literary legends like Goethe and J.R.R. Tolkien. Enjoy free time to stroll through its charming streets and take in the beauty of Staubbach Falls—Switzerland’s third-highest waterfall and a true icon of the region. With fresh mountain air and unforgettable alpine moments, rejoin your guide in the afternoon for the scenic return journey.

If Interlaken had a king, he would reside on the Harder Kulm. Take a short walk from the Interlaken-Ost railway station to the Harder Kulm Railway valley station. From there, hop on the funicular in Interlaken and climb up the mountainside. Enjoy stunning views of the scenic mountain landscape. Once you ride to the top, check out the viewing platform which is 1,322 meters (!) above sea level. Marvel at the snowy peaks of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau. Enjoy the spectacular view from the “Two-Lakes- Bridge,” where you can see the sapphire-blue lakes Brienz and Thun. Feel the thrill of standing on top of a glass-bottomed viewing platform. If you look down, you’ll really get to see what 1,322 meters look like. Visit the restaurant on top of the Harder Kulm. Although the restaurant looks like a castle, you won’t need to be a king to enjoy royal service. Relax as you admire the magnificent view of the sun setting behind the mountains. Choose when you want to make your descent down the mountain. Check the opening times beforehand.
