The traditionally minded Bernese Oberland has enjoyed worldwide fame for more than a hundred years. Mountain peaks soar high above the valley floors; wild rivers cascade over the rocks and plunge over dizzy waterfalls, only coming to rest when they reach Lake Thun or Lake Brienz. In the heart of this magical mountain world lie charming villages such as Gstaad, Meiringen and Lenk. For the romantic at heart, they can also be reached by train. Even if you are there for the first time, you are sure to feel instantly at home in the Oberland.
