Top Adventure Sports in Interlaken

Ready to take the lead on your adventure? Head to Lake Thun for some epic cliff jumping! Rent a kayak in Neuhaus, paddle for about 40 minutes, and you’ll reach the perfect spot. You can easily jump from 8 meters without much climbing experience. If you’re feeling daring, you can go up to 14 meters—just make sure you’ve got the right shoes and skills.

VIA FERRATA

Love climbing, or maybe just love the idea of it? Try a via Ferrata! This “iron path” has you hooked to a cable as you scale the mountain, stepping on metal rods drilled into the wall. It’s a DIY adventure, but if heights make you nervous, there are guided groups you can join. Learn more about Ferratas in our Via Ferrata, the complete guide.

BUNGEE JUMPING

Some people take a gondola for the views; others take it to jump off at the highest point! If you’re in the second group, lift yourself 134 meters above Lake Stockensee and take the plunge. The drop is intense—prepare to rebound until your blood is practically racing!

RIVER RAFTING ON THE LÜTSCHINE RIVER

Not a fan of heights? Try river rafting on the chilly, wild waters of the Lütschine River! With Class III-IV rapids, you’ll get plenty of splash action (just hold on to your paddle!).
