Top of Interlaken - Harder Kulm
#winhkflight #harderkulm #interlaken #switzerland
We went to Harder Kulm for the food, panoramic view of Interlaken and sunset. If you are visiting Harder Kulm, I would recommend you to come in the evening to enjoy all in one. You need to take funicular to reach the Harder Kulm. If not, you can choose to hike up, there’s hiking trail. It is definitely a nice place to enjoy your meal with the panoramic view of Interlaken and music. There are live folklore shows performing traditional Swiss music from May to October. You can check online for their performance time. There’s an amazing steel structure for you to take picture with the breathtaking views.
I want to travel to Hong Kong to experience their culture, foods and more.

Most Scenic spot in Interlaken
#switzerland is the land of mountains and this one is of the best place to be for that. Harder Kulm, a mountain looming over the town of Interlaken, gives picture perfect views of 3 tall of majestic mountains across the valley.
Harder Kulm can be reached either by hiking or taking a scenic furnicular from Interlaken Ost station. The views as you climb up get even better as you will get to see the two stunningly blue lakes that the town got its name from. At the top. every single step offer opportunities to take memorable photos that will last for a lifetime. #awesomepic #scenic #viewsfordays #holidays

The Harder Kulm in Interlaken is a viewpoint at 1,322 metres in the Berner Oberland region of Switzerland. It will take around 10 minutes to travel up in a funicular (do take note of the last ride in order not to miss it).
The view is superb, amazing, and breathtaking.
The restaurant is a good place to rest and have some food in such a serene setting. We tried our first founde in Switzerland, and the waiter actually took the effort to "teach" us how to eat. Great service!

At the top of Harder Klum!
This was taken at the top of the Harder Klum! We went up in the late afternoon via the vertical train up! It take roughly about 20mins to travel all the way up! Be sure to take the bottom row seats to ensure a Birds Eye view while it’s moving up!
It was breathtaking to see the 2 lakes and interlaken in between! Definitely recommend if you haven’t visit! A must do! 🥳 #harderklum #interlaken #switzerland

Top of Interlaken
Harder Kulm is a nice 2.5 hour hike to the top of Interlaken. There are two main trails with small branches and shortcuts . If you want real Swiss mountain and lake scenery you must do this. In the middle of Interlocken, between the two lakes. The Harder Kulm is just incredible and offers the most amazing view of Interlaken.

The city of Zurich, a global center for banking and finance, lies at the north end of Lake Zurich in northern Switzerland. The picturesque lanes of the central Altstadt (Old Town), on either side of the Limmat River, reflect its pre-medieval history. Waterfront promenades like the Limmatquai follow the river toward the 17th-century Rathaus (town hall). #100WaysofTravel

The weather is perfect and beautiful for most days, across various parts of the country! The sky and water bodies are blue, and the clouds so fluffy and white! While some days it rained, but the day we go to the Harder Klum, the sun was shining down brightly, the views were clear from the mid morning to the afternoon! Would really love to go again if I have the chance!

Golden Rays at Interlaken: A Marvel of Light and Snow
#europetrip
Interlaken, a jewel in the heart of Switzerland, offers a breathtaking spectacle where golden rays meet the pristine snow-capped mountains. This natural phenomenon, where sunlight dramatically illuminates the alpine peaks, creates a visual poetry that captivates visitors and locals alike.
A Stunning Display of Nature's Artistry
The magic happens during the early mornings and late evenings when the sun’s rays angle perfectly with the peaks, causing them to glow with a brilliant gold. This golden light, contrasting sharply against the crisp white of the snow and the deep blues of the sky, presents a mesmerizing scene. The effect is not just beautiful but also fleeting, which makes witnessing it feel all the more special and rewarding.
Ideal for Photographers and Nature Lovers
For photographers, these moments of golden illumination are a dream, offering a chance to capture the transient beauty of light and landscape in perfect harmony. Nature lovers and hikers will also find this time ideal for experiencing the tranquil yet awe-inspiring atmosphere of the Alps, as the mountains bask in the sun’s glow.
Accessible Vantage Points
Several vantage points around Interlaken provide spectacular views of this phenomenon. Whether you choose to watch from a lakeside position or take a short hike up neighboring hills, each spot offers a unique perspective on the illuminated peaks. Popular spots like Harder Kulm or the trails leading around Lake Thun are excellent choices for catching the golden rays.
Visitor Tips
- Timing is Everything: To catch the mountains in their golden glory, aim to be in place either during sunrise or an hour before sunset. These are the times when the angle of the sun is just right.
- Weather Check: Clear days are ideal for viewing the golden rays, so it’s wise to check the weather forecast before planning your outing.
- Dress Appropriately: Mornings and evenings can be chilly, especially at higher elevations, so dress warmly and in layers.

Day 9 of the Europe Trip -- Harder Kulm Panorama Platform
June 26th, today we plan to go to the Harder Kulm Panorama Platform. From Interlaken East Station, cross the river to reach the Harder Kulm funicular station. The Harder Kulm platform is at an altitude of 1322 meters. On the funicular, we encountered a disabled person in a wheelchair. The staff prepared a flat platform for him to get on and off the train, and there was a designated spot for wheelchairs in the carriage 🚇. The staff laid out the flat platform for him when he got off. This is something we see often, but every time it warms my heart. From the platform, you can see the entire view of the two lakes and Interlaken.

Take the Harder Kulm cable car to the top of the hill to see the city of Interlaken. Next to the cable car station is a suspended triangle viewing platform overlooking the entire mountain. If it is a clear sky, you can see the Eiger, Mnch and Jungfrau on the 360-degree viewing platform. Today, we are not so lucky. Interlaken has been carrying a patter of light rain, so we can only see the Thunhu and Brienz lakes in the middle of the mountains and the beautiful small between the two lakes. town. However, the light rain that has been going down all the time has not affected our feelings of enjoying the beautiful scenery. Instead, we can let us relax in this embrace of mountains and freedom.
The rain slowly stopped, and the sky gradually became fine. The snowy mountains in the distance finally revealed their true colors. Against the backdrop of the rainbow, Interlaken, a town full of mountains and waters, is a fairyland on earth!
