Thanks for the links Polorise, you inspired us today to head off into the Bernese Oberland and after viewing the truemmelbach falls website decided to head to the famous Reichenbach falls - http://www.reichenbachfall.ch/ of Sherlock Holmes fame (not that i'd know much about this but my husbands a bit of a fan) anyway a nice day out so thought i'd add it to the list

Not far from there is a lovely old hotel near to the Giessbach waterfall, great for romantic dinners overlooking the lake of Brienz and surrounding mountains - http://www.giessbach.ch/

Also, if you're feeling fit, try hiking up from Interlaken to the Faulhorn. It has a wonderful hotel on the summit - no heating, more of a glorified refuge - and offers magnificent views over to the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfraujoch. Also: sunrise, sunset, stars, solitude. http://www.berghotel-faulhorn.ch/
