Reminder: rafting season in the Swiss Alps is short! 🌊 Depending on water levels, it might only last a few more weeks. If you want in, book your spot as soon as possible! 🚤⛰️⁠
⁠
The mighty Lütschine offers some of the best whitewater rafting in the Swiss Alps. Straight from the start, below the Eiger north face, continuous class III-IV rapids surge down from the mountains and out into the Interlaken valley and the Lake of Brienz. It is an exhilarating rush from start to finish.⁠
