The beautiful resort of Interlaken in the Swiss Alps is the ideal winter destination for those who don't want to spend an entire holiday skiing. The town's name means "between the lakes" and a holidaymakers who book flights to Interlaken can enjoy a host of activities on the lakes of Thun and Brienz. Watersports, needless to say, are a popular activity, both in summer and winter months. The surrounding Bernese Alps offer a host of attractions for the summer months, such as hiking and cycling, and in the wintertime skiers can use cable cars and mountain trains to access the nearby ski resorts. As it is a low-lying resort, accommodation is less busy, and often cheaper, than that at the larger and more traditional Swiss destinations. A cheap flight to Interlaken, combined with budget accommodation, can be the perfect way to a discounted ski holiday in Switzerland.

Interlaken Insider Information

  • Take a winter hike along frozen rivers and through the forest of Kleine Rugen. Or challenge yourself with your skiing. Follow the tracks of the famous Lauberhorn downhill ski run, or ski the legendary Schilthorn area, the highest in the Bernese Oberland
  • Watch a play in the woods. William Tell, the play by Schiller, is performed in the open air in the Ruge Forest every summer. Wooden houses frame the stage and the 250 strong cast are assisted by a good selection of horses, cattle and farm animals who make an appearance. It is performed in German but you can work out what is happening, and the animals need no translation.
  • Take the funicular railway from Interlaken Ost station up to see the view at Harderkuhm. On Fridays there is folk dancing, music and late trains laid on specially.
