Latsch is a small village located on the mountain next to Bergün train station, with a sparse population. From here, you can look down on the town of Bergün, and the view is breathtaking. The houses in the village are all aged buildings. They are neither grand nor quaintly cute, but they have their unique charm. Walking through the village's narrow paths feels like stepping back into the Europe of yesteryears.

#europetrip Nestled on the shores of the stunning Lake Brienz, the charming village of Brienz in Switzerland is a true hidden gem. Surrounded by majestic mountains, crystal-clear waters, and picturesque alpine landscapes, this quaint village offers a perfect escape into nature, Swiss culture, and tranquility. One of the highlights of Brienz is the pristine Lake Brienz itself. The lake’s turquoise waters are ideal for boating, kayaking, and swimming in the summer, while the surrounding mountains offer a variety of hiking trails with panoramic views. A boat ride across the lake is an experience in itself, with breathtaking vistas of the surrounding peaks, quaint villages, and traditional Swiss chalets dotting the shoreline. For those interested in history and Swiss craftsmanship, Brienz is renowned for its woodcarving tradition. The town boasts the Swiss Woodcarving Museum, where visitors can admire intricate carvings and learn about the centuries-old craft. Brienz is also home to numerous woodcarving workshops, where you can witness artisans at work and purchase unique handcrafted souvenirs. Nearby, Brienz Rothorn provides access to one of the most scenic mountain summits in Switzerland, accessible via a historic cogwheel train. The summit offers a panoramic view of the surrounding mountains and valleys, making it a perfect spot for photography and hiking. Whether you’re exploring the tranquil lake, immersing yourself in Swiss traditions, or hiking the surrounding mountains, Brienz offers an authentic Swiss experience that will leave you with memories to cherish for a lifetime.

#europetrip #switerland #brienz #lakebrienz Brienz is one of the most beautiful towns I’ve ever visited in Switzerland, a picture-perfect destination that feels like a slice of heaven. Nestled along the shores of the turquoise Lake Brienz, the town offers breathtaking views of the surrounding snow-capped mountains even in the warmth of summer. The contrast of the shimmering lake with the lush green hills and the glistening white peaks is simply magical. Strolling along the lakeside promenade, I couldn’t help but fall in love with the tranquility and charm of this idyllic town. The wooden chalets adorned with colorful flowers added to the postcard-perfect scenery, making Brienz a true summer paradise.

Taking the historic steam train to Rothorn is a fantastic experience. It's a fun trip suitable for the whole family, especially young children. The ride takes about an hour, but both the journey to and from are wonderful. The views of the lakes and mountains along the way are absolutely stunning. At the summit, you can enjoy the magnificent views of the Bernese Alps' three giants, including the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau. You can also take in the beauty of Brienz, Glaubebielen, and Schrattenfluh. Afterward, you can freely take any train back along the same route, which is very convenient. The train travels slowly, allowing you to truly immerse yourself in the scenery and gain a unique experience. It is highly recommended to book seats during the peak tourist season, as there are few trains, and due to the steep gradient, the steam engine only pushes two carriages, limiting the train's capacity. There is only one train per hour in both directions. Don't miss this historic steam train, as it is a once-in-a-lifetime experience! Absolutely worth it!

|Enter My Dream Castle. 🏰 Swiss Hotel Review | 🙋 Enter My Dream Castle~|||Hey～Today, I'm going to take you to explore a beautiful castle hotel in Switzerland - Grandhotel Giessbach! ✨ I really love this hotel~ 🌟Grandhotel Giessbach is a 4-star hotel with 75 rooms. Some rooms offer stunning views of the snow-capped mountains, Lake Brienz, or waterfalls. 🛋️ As soon as you enter the lobby, you feel like you've entered the Grand Budapest Hotel, with colorful wallpaper, vintage European furniture, a grand piano, and fresh flowers and greenery everywhere, as if you've walked into a warmly decorated castle. 🔑 The room key you receive from the front desk is full of ceremony. ☕️ There is no mini bar or kettle in the room, but you can find everything you want in the public area on the third floor. It's like walking from your room to the tea room, where there is coffee, tea, and fruit. 🛀 The room furniture is very old-fashioned, but the bathroom is brand new, and green is my favorite bathroom color, so I really enjoy taking a bath in it. 🧴 It's worth mentioning that the toiletries smell very fresh and natural, and I couldn't resist buying a few bottles when I checked out, 10 euros each. The hotel also sells souvenirs such as honey from its own garden. 📺 The TV is very small and retro, just like the ones I used to watch when I was a kid, but the hotel thoughtfully provides a program list, so you can easily see which channels are in English, German, French, or radio! I have to say, the quality of a great hotel is all in the details!!! I really recommend that you stay in Brienz for a day when you travel to Switzerland, because if you miss it, I'll really feel sorry for you!

Visiting Brienz was a wonderful experience filled with natural beauty. This charming village, located on the shores of Lake Brienz, is surrounded by picturesque mountains and offers stunning views from every angle. I enjoyed walking along the lake's shore, where the clear blue water reflects the surrounding mountains. I also took a cable car to the top of the mountain, and the view from there was truly breathtaking. I strolled through the village and enjoyed shopping at small shops selling local handicrafts. The food was delicious, especially the traditional Swiss dishes. I highly recommend visiting Brienz to enjoy its natural beauty and tranquil atmosphere. It's a must-visit destination! 🏔️🌊

The weather in Brienz was cloudy, but the beautiful blue of Lake Brienz was spread out before us. The departure time was 9:40, and even though it was cloudy, the train was almost full. The impressive red steam locomotive looked very cute, so I got on with excitement. I was able to sit in the "seat facing the locomotive on the left side of the train as I was traveling" that I saw on the internet. The scenery was the most magnificent I have ever seen, and the train passing close to the cows was very impressive. I arrived at the top of the mountain, but I couldn't see anything because of the fog...I'm so disappointed that if it had been sunny, the view would have been amazing, but I thought it was cool and like a dream. Round trip 84CHF (about 15,000 yen) You can ride for half price with a Swiss Half Pass or Travel Pass. 📍Location: Rothorn, 3855 Brienz #0 yen travel autumn

Lake Brienz is one of the prettiest, yet one of the most underrated lakes in Switzerland! The uniquely turquoise blue colours of the lake, the charming Swiss villages around it and the beautiful landscapes of the Swiss Alps make Lake Brienz one of the best places to visit in Switzerland and one of my absolute favourite Swiss Lakes! With vibrant turquoise water, a mountain framed shoreline, and several cute villages to visit on route, the Lake Brienz cruise is a tour to remember. The Lake Brienz boat tour starts in Interlaken Ost (Interlaken East) and ends in the village of Brienz at the east end of the lake. You can also do the tour in reverse, starting in Brienz and ending in Interlaken Ost. The one-way trip takes about 1 hour 15 minutes. You can book a roundtrip cruise or return to Interlaken or Brienz by train (what I did). #brienz #switzerland #lakebrienz

Giessbach, Brienz 200 CHF/night (standard room) Living in Château Gütsch for two days was a day that made me feel like I had to remember for a lifetime. The low-key luxury hotel, with the Brienz Lake outside the window like tears, and the distant snow-capped mountains towering majestically. All the troubles have been quietly healed by the scenery here. I can feel nature talking to me, asking me to slow down and take a look at the world. Gstaad Palace was founded in 1817, originally serving as a venue for military officer exchange banquets during World War I. It has been rated as a four-star hotel in Switzerland and a historic hotel in Switzerland. Excellent geographical location, situated on Lake Brienz, making it very convenient to travel to Interlaken, Jungfrau, Grindelwald and other places. After arriving in Brienz, you can choose to have the hotel arrange a shuttle or take the century-old mountain train up the mountain. (Train 1 only operates from April to November each year.) Here is the filming location of the scene where the male lead of "Crash Landing on You" studied in Switzerland. There is a waterfall across from the hotel, and the view is excellent when dining facing it. The super luxurious living room is free to use, and there is also billiards, etc. Pages 12 and 13, my friends and I took photos there for half a day, and they turned out really great! Gstaad, where I received my old money, has a strong sense of age and lacks the restlessness of young people. Therefore, I highly recommend spending your Swiss vacation here!
