Lauterbrunnen Motels - Reviews and Rates

Unfortunately the weather was terrible. It was raining this morning but I decided to make the most of what I could Mannlichen as I thought I would go on a small hike between there and Kleine Scheidegg. Wengen and Lauterbrunnen are ok in the wet but Mannlichen was not. I suppose it was too high and the weather couldn't hold. It was very windy and...

Wow! The Lauterbrunnen valley sure does make a statement! I have never stayed in a caravan park that has such an impressive view... I can almost overlook the smell in our room....Don't want to take the time ponder what it is though! After arriving we took a walk down the valley to Trummelbach falls. There wasn't so much water coming over the fal...

This morning was woken 2am by thunder lightning and pelting rain. The rest of the day was cold and wet. want really all that much to do, we walked around and pretty much just took pictures with buildings and shopped. Went back to the hostel and played uno for a couple of hours. met some random Kiwis on a school geography trip. Stopped raining fi...

On Friday we left for Switzerland!!! We went to this adorable little town named Lauterbrunnen. It's about 30 minutes by train from Interlaken (where a lot of people go when going to Switzerland). It's a pretty long train ride... it took about 8 hours there and 7 hours going back. When going there our train got really behind in France, so we miss...

Today, I went hiking in the SWISS ALPS :) It is very different from the Canadian Rockies. The Swiss Alps are warmer, more green and BIGGER. They are also more heavily populated and every house has a pasture of sheep or cows with cowbells on. I am staying in a little town called Lauterbrunnen, which is in an area of Interlakken in the Berner Ober...

With such a stressful day the day before (!), its no wonder that we found ourselves sleeping in the next day. But, it turned out to be just fine, since it wasn't the nicest day. It was still a little overcast, which meant that we weren't going to be able to see much of the beautiful scenery, so we decided to visit the Trümmelbach Falls, which ar...

If you travel south from Interlaken (located on a small strip of land between the Brienzersee and Thundersee lakes) the mountains will split forming two valleys. On the one side is Grinelwald and the other Lauterbrunnen. These towns are form part of the major skiing area of the Jungfrau region of Switzerland. To move from one area of the mountai...

We arrive in the 'Valley of the Waterfalls' and drive up the biggest valley of its kind in the world to Lauterbrunnen. This valley has 72 waterfall in it and as it is springtime all the snow melt is ensuring the valley lives up to its name. We pitch right below the one of the largest waterfalls in the valley. This is an amazing valley with such ...

We had decided the previous evening that taking advantage of our geographical location overrides the financial contraints of traveling. Or - we are only in Switzerland this one time so bugger the money and go up the proper mountain instead of some lesser one. Tip #19: If you are traveling with a child fifteen years or younger, the very first thi...
