There’s a certain kind of magic at Oeschinensee this time of year. It’s quiet, a bit brooding, and utterly incredible. 🏔️❄️
While the summer crowds are still months away, the lake feels like a well-kept secret. Watching the turquoise water begin to break through the winter ice is a proper sight to behold. It’s raw, it’s wild, and it’s exactly why we love Interlaken.
Fancy a misty trek to see it for yourself? Grab a mate from the common room and head up before the clouds roll in.

This town in Switzerland has 72 waterfalls🤯
Welcome to Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland 🇨🇭
A village of about 2,500 people sitting at the bottom of one of the most dramatic valleys in the Alps. Sheer 300-meter cliffs on both sides, 72 waterfalls, and a backdrop of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau. It’s genuinely one of most memorable places I’ve been too🙌
🚆 Getting there
Train is the best way to reach Lauterbrunnen. Switzerland’s rail network connects directly to the village, and the Swiss Travel Pass covers trains, buses, and cable cars in the area
🥾 What to do
Hike the Männlichen to Kleine Scheidegg ridge for straight-on views of the Eiger north face. Take the cogwheel train up to Jungfraujoch, the highest railway station in Europe at 3,454m. Walk to Trümmelbach Falls, a series of glacial waterfalls carved inside the mountain itself. And walk through the valley. The waterfalls spill off the cliffs above you at almost every turn
📅 Best time
May through October. The falls are fullest in late spring (June) when snowmelt is heavy
Have you been to Switzerland?🤔

@whereisjanee_ just casually rode a train that looks like it’s climbing straight into a dream 😭🚂 Tag someone you’d take this unreal mountain ride with!
📌 What to know before you go:
• The Brienz Rothorn Railway is Switzerland’s only daily steam-powered cogwheel railway still running in regular service
• The ride takes about 1 hour from the lakeside village of Brienz up to the 2,350 m summit of Rothorn
• Sit on the right side when going up for the best views of turquoise Lake Brienz and the Bernese Alps
• Summer to early autumn (usually June–October) is the operating season, since snow closes the line in winter

Hidden inside the mountains above Lake Thun lies one of the most incredible cave systems in Switzerland.
The St. Beatus Caves near Interlaken stretch deep inside the mountain with underground rivers, waterfalls, and ancient rock formations.
A place that truly feels unreal.

The colour of the Aare River never quite looks real.
Flowing through Interlaken with that unmistakable turquoise, it’s the kind of place you end up wandering past without much of a plan, just following the water, the mountains in the background, and the occasional stop to take it all in.
One of those quiet little spots that reminds you why travelling in Switzerland is rather special.

My Hostel in Interlaken:
Mountains by day, good people by night.
A few days turned into a week.
One adventure led to another: skiing, skydiving, wandering through valleys that don’t quite look real.
Some places you visit.
Some places feel like a little chapter of your trip.
Interlaken just has that effect.

Good people. Good stories.
At Balmers Hostel, the mountains might bring you here, but the atmosphere tends to make you stay.
Evenings in the garden, a pint or two at the bar, travellers swapping stories from the day’s adventures. Someone starts a game of foosball, someone else suggests a movie, and before you know it, the whole place feels like a very international living room.
Comfortable, lively, and just the right amount of chaos.
Book a bed. The rest tends to happen naturally.

Thinking about trying skiing or snowboarding while you’re in Interlaken?
Good idea.
From complete beginners finding their balance to experienced riders who just need the gear, we’ve got different packages to get you up the mountain.
Lessons, equipment rental, lift passes — or simply a board and skis if you already know what you’re doing.
The Jungfrau region is right on the doorstep, and winter days up there tend to be rather spectacular.
All the options (and the details) are on our website. Have a look and pick what suits you best.

One of the most beautiful lakes in Switzerland in winter 🇨🇭
📍 Oeschinen Lake, Bernese Oberland
A winter hike that feels straight out of a postcard.
🥾 Kandersteg → Oeschinensee
• 9 km round trip
• 500 m elevation gain
• Snowshoes or crampons, depending on snow and ice conditions
In winter, the famous panoramic trail is closed
(reopening June 2026).
Still, the journey to the lake is absolutely worth it: frozen water, silent forests, and alpine views in every direction.

Fun fact about **Balmers Hostel**:
It all started back in **1907**, when Frida and Adolf Balmer opened a small *Touristenheim* for travellers. By the 1950s, they were already hosting British school groups, so you could say the hostel spirit here has been going strong for quite some time.
In the 70s, the second generation expanded it from a modest 50 beds to one of the most iconic hostels in Switzerland.
Today, the third generation is still running the show.
So yes… when you stay at Balmers, you’re not just booking a bed, you’re joining over a century of travellers passing through Interlaken.

We’ve seen the debates. 🫕
Now tell us: What are the proper consequences when someone loses their bread in the fondue?
And no, “running around the table” or “paying a round” won’t cut it - we’re talking high-stakes fondue justice. 😉
👇Drop your rules in the comments - we need answers.

Not just a bed. A proper social life.
At Balmers, the days are for mountains and the evenings are for everyone else.
Think trivia nights that get surprisingly competitive.
Foosball battles that last far too long.
Movie nights with popcorn and a film.
Garden hangs. Bar chats. New mates by midnight.
You can come solo. You won’t stay that way.
Check in for the Alps.
Stay for the atmosphere.
Book your room and join in.

March in Interlaken? Best of both worlds.
Snow is still up high. Spring is waking up down low.
One day, you’re carving fresh lines in the Jungfrau region. The next time you’re paragliding over two lakes. Feeling bold? Skydive it. Prefer something calmer? Kayak on Lake Brienz or wander through Lauterbrunnen while the waterfalls are showing off.
Skiing. Snowboarding. Sledging. Skydiving. Paragliding. Canyon swings. Winter hikes. Early spring lake days.
Adventure season doesn’t end here; it just gets interesting.
Base yourself at Balmers. We’ll help you plan the rest.
Book your bed and make March count.
