Hi Friends,

http://www.swisspasses.com/railpass/...60457586914551

I found this regional pass very useful and made the purchase. It covers one trip to Jungfraujoch also. While the pass covers many trips; I wish to take help from you guys to book hotels for the two nights between three days. Are there any recommended places where I need to book my hotel or come back to Interlaken on each day? I want to know if I fall short of time to make use of the pass and see most of the places while enjoying activities that are good; especially skiing or gliding; I am beginner anyway.

BTW, do I need to care for reservations for few trains within that region? Especially for the trip to Jungfraujoch with VIP pass.

I am already thankful to all you guys for the wonderful help you provide.

I think there's a Hooters in Interlaken .

I stayed at Balmers Guest House. It is only about 10 minutes walk from the town centre and has links with all tha local activities.

The Harder is the local mountain and very easy going.

Does anybody know where to find hiking maps for Interlaken? The interlaken.ch website only has panaromic map which is not very useful.

Have a look here: http://www.swisstopo.admin.ch/intern...swiss_map.html

Here are a couple of sites:

http://www.wanderland.ch/en/welcome.cfm

http://www.wandersite.ch/def_english.html

Every restaurant and hotel in the whole area has brochures galore of things to do in the region. We stayed in Wengen last year and hiked all over hell and creation. It is a very special place. I would have to say, though, that of all the towns in the area and vistas and wildflowers and general "Swissiness", Interlaken would be my last choice. Go up into the mountains!

sure.. there is a hooters in interlaken... forget the buffalo wings .. SO SPICY!!!!!!!!

Hey,

Would you recommend any Guest House, non-commercial place to stay in Wengen or Lauterbrunnen?

Thanks,

K

It's about a 25 minute train ride to Brienz then 15 minutes more by bus. It's truly worth it but expect to make a whole day out of it as there's lots to see and lots of walking.

Agreed! But while changing trains (if the visibility is good) I will take a walk to the Höhematte to see once again the classic view of the Jungfrau, framed by two hills, across the meadow.

Then I will get back on the train to Mürren
