You haven’t truly experienced hiking in the Swiss Alps until you’ve been completely outpaced by a mountain goat who didn’t even pack water or hiking boots.
Here in Interlaken, the trail guides come in all shapes, sizes, and fluffiness levels. Just ask the crew at our front desk for the best routes to spot these locals, grab your backpack, and hit the ridges! 🎒🥾

Some leave footprints, others leave postcards & great pictures 💌
Our guests leave their mark at Balmers in their own way: a sticker, a note, a doodle, or a memory shared with new friends. Years later, these little pieces of history still tell the story of travellers from all over the world who called Balmers home for a few nights.
What would your Balmers legacy be? 👀

Thanks, @willpuckett, for the pictures and the kind words.
How to get to this incredible hike🌸🌿🇨🇭
📍Oeschinensee, Switzerland
*Drive to the village called Kandersteg
*From Kandersteg, you can either hike or take the cable car from Kandersteg to Oeschinensee rodelbahn (CHF 40 tour/ retour p.p)
🥾From the top of the cable car station:
*Follow the path until you meet the first crossroad.
*At the crossroad, you can either keep going straight or go down to the lake. That’s a great option for families with kids.
*If you want to see the spectacular views in the video, take the path to the left. You will walk past a shed among other things.
*After walking for approximately 10-15 minutes on the left path, you’ll see a «portal» to your left. Through this portal, you can see a narrower and rocky path that goes upwards in the mountain. Take this path and follow this
*This path takes you around the lake with stunning views, and you will meet this viewpoint on the way.
*Hiking time from the cable station to this viewpoint is approximately 1.5 hours, depending on how many stops you make
*If you walk from Kandersteg, it will take around 3 hours to reach this viewpoint
*You can choose to continue and walk around the lake, or you can go back the same way you came from.

Found the best seat in Brienz🇨🇭💯
Sometimes the best activity on the itinerary is simply sitting still. 🗺️🧘♂️
After a week of hiking, paragliding, and hostel parties, this quiet little corner of Brienz is exactly what the doctor ordered. Just you, a wooden bench, and a view that makes you realise why you packed your bags in the first place. Absolute peace. ✨🛶

Hello everyone!
We stayed at the famous Balmers Hostel in Interlaken, Switzerland.
The history of this place dates back to 1907, when a married couple, Frieda and Adolf Balmer, opened a small guesthouse for travelers. Over the years, it became a favorite destination for visitors from all over the world and is now considered one of the oldest and most famous privately owned hostels in Switzerland. More than a century later, the hostel is still managed by the Balmer family.
Balmers consists of several traditional Swiss chalet-style buildings. Between them, you’ll find a cozy courtyard, green gardens, and relaxing outdoor spaces. There are long communal tables, terraces, and plenty of places where travelers can meet, share stories, and connect with one another. Because of this, Balmers feels less like a typical hostel and more like a small international community.
Another highlight of the hostel is its large communal kitchen, where guests can prepare their own meals. The kitchen is fully equipped with stoves, cookware, refrigerators, and everything needed for cooking. It’s also a place where people from different parts of the world meet, exchange experiences, and make new friends.
The place that impressed me the most was the hammock room. Unfortunately, I didn’t manage to capture it on video, so I’ll share a photo instead. It’s a small and cozy relaxation space inside the hostel where guests can read, unwind, or simply enjoy some quiet time. The room is open daily from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM.
Thanks to its unique atmosphere, rich history, and welcoming environment that brings people together, Balmers Hostel continues to hold a special place in the hearts of travelers from around the world.

Not a bad way to spend a Tuesday, all things considered. 🛶☀️
If you’re looking to escape the heat, the middle of Lake Brienz is about as good as it gets. Glacial turquoise water, massive cliffs, and just the sound of your paddle. No high-speed engines, no rushing around—just proper alpine peace (and a decent workout for your arms, if we`re being honest). 🏔️✨
Pop by reception to book a kayak slot before they’re all gone. 🎒

Zuhause ist dort, wo die Küche des Hostels ist. ❤️
Einer unserer Lieblingsbeschäftigungen im Sommer bei Balmers ist es, zuzusehen, wie die Gemeinschaftsküche abends zum Leben erwacht. Heute Abend tauschen wir die Standard-Backpacker-Pasta gegen ein echtes Schweizer Meisterwerk aus: hausgemachtes Fondue! 🫕✨

Turquoise water, alpine silence, and mountains reflecting like a mirror — the kind of place that makes you forget your phone for a minute and just exist✨

Beim Einchecken in ein Hostel geht es nie nur darum, ein Bett zu bekommen – es geht darum, mit wem man das Zimmer, die Küche und die Geschichten teilt. 🌍✨ Danke @travelerargentina für dieses Bild.
Vom Kochen chaotischer Abendessen in der Gruppe bis hin zum Austausch von Wandertipps bei einem Bier – im Hostelleben werden aus Fremden in weniger als 24 Stunden Freunde fürs Leben. Auf die nächtlichen Gespräche, die frühmorgendlichen Bergbesuche und die globale Familie, von der Sie nicht wussten, dass Sie sie brauchen.
📍Ihre Heimatbasis in Interlaken seit dem ersten Tag. 🇨🇭
