Giessbach Falls & Iseltwald
Waterfall, Belle Époque & Slow Hiking by Lake Brienz
This scenic hike takes you from the spectacular 14-tiered Giessbach Falls along one of the most beautiful lakeside trails in Switzerland – to the postcard-perfect village of Iseltwald on the shores of turquoise Lake Brienz.
🚂 Start in Interlaken – train ride to Brienz
🚢 Continue by boat to Giessbach
🚋 Ride the oldest funicular in Europe up to the historic Grandhotel Giessbach – where 19th-century high society once came to rest, recover, and reconnect.
✨ From there, we begin our relaxed hike:
We marvel at the powerful Giessbach Falls as they cascade down 14 levels – and even walk behind the waterfall!
Then we follow the peaceful lakeside trail through shady forests, with constant views of the turquoise lake and surrounding mountains.
🧺 We stop for a self-brought picnic in the forest and recharge in the fresh alpine air.
📸 In Iseltwald – a fairytale lakeside village – the famous Netflix Pier awaits.
We take time to pause, enjoy the view, and capture the moment.
A day filled with variety, impressions, calm, and connection to nature.
