Lake Brienz Brienzersee

The weather turned cloudy on the afternoon of June 25th, so I immediately changed my plan and decided not to go up the mountain but to visit Lake Brienz instead. My pass included a boat ride on Lake Brienz and Lake Thun. Lake Brienz (German: Brienzersee) is a lake located on the northern edge of the Alps in the canton of Bern, Switzerland, named after the village of Brienz on its northeastern shore. Interlaken and the villages of Matten and Unterseen are located on the southwestern side. The lake's shores are quite steep, with almost no shallow areas, making Lake Brienz more valuable for recreation compared to its scenery. The boat departs from the pier at the east train station, and even under the cover of clouds, the enticing beauty visible to the eyes is hard to conceal. The towering, majestic mountains stretch out, and the emerald green lake water gently reflects the mountains' shadows. Along the way, there are many charming small towns, and if time permits, you can disembark and explore them. The ferry runs approximately every 1-2 hours. If you want to take the ferry from Interlaken to the two towns, the boarding points are at the east and west train stations of Interlaken. Just follow the signs with the ferry symbol to reach the pier.
