Staubbach Falls

Highlight • Waterfall

The Staubbachfall is really extraordinary. From some perspectives, one feels directly reminded of the "Lord of the Rings" in the Lauterbrunnen Valley - it seems not unlikely that Mr. Tolkien got some inspiration from a hiking holiday in Switzerland at a young age, just as one probably did for Peter Jackson may accept.

Lauterbrunnen Valley

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

The trio may not be quite as impressive as it is when viewed from the opposite heights, but it still dominates the entire valley. Keep your eyes open: you can often watch base jumpers flying here.

Lauterbrunnen

Highlight • Settlement

The small village of Lauterbrunnen lies in the idyllic valley of the same name. From the bridge over the Weisse Lütschine river, you have a fantastic view towards Lauterbrunnen's landmark, the Staubbach Falls. It's the highest free-falling waterfall in Switzerland and impressive even from a distance. A short detour directly to the falls is worthwhile, as in summer you can view them from behind via a gallery – free of charge.

Lauterbrunnen itself is definitely worth a break. Whether just for a quick stop or a longer stay is entirely up to you.

Around the village, there are great bike trails, such as the challenging Grütsch Trail, which is accessible via the Mürrenbahn cable car and leads directly back to the village. If you'd like to rent a bike or have a technical problem with yours, several bike shops nearby can help. Bosch e-bike charging stations have been installed throughout the region, and there are two of them right in Lauterbrunnen. You can find the exact locations here: lauterbrunnen.swiss/de/sommer/sehen-und-erleben/aktivitaeten/mountainbike/bosch-e-bike-ladestationen.

May 19, 2022,Von Lauterbrunnen über Stechelberg nach Trachsellauenen

Great scenic tour that gives you that Himalayan feeling. To Rütti with a slight incline on traffic-free side streets and gravel paths in the valley floor. Also easy to ride with the city bike.
Then on a good forest path steeply up to Trachsellauenen. Technically easy but exhausting with a mountain bike. Due to the gravelly descent with the touring …
