STAGE 3<br />

Interlaken<br />

Interlaken lies between Lake Thun and<br />

the turquoise Lake Brienz, dwarfed by the<br />

peaks of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau.<br />

Its incredible position means you’ll have<br />

access to more than 45 mountain railways,<br />

cable cars, chair lifts and ski lifts, while thrillseekers<br />

will love the paraglider paradise just<br />

10km away on Beatenberg-Niederhorn’s<br />

sunny south-facing slopes.<br />

WHERE TO STAY<br />

Head back into the mountains for an<br />

incredible drive up to Hotel Bellevue des<br />

Alpes, boasting the finest views on the<br />

Scheidegg Pass.<br />

Managed by the von Almen family for five<br />

generations, it has many claims to fame,<br />

including being one of the locations for <strong>The</strong><br />

Eiger Sanction, starring Clint Eastwood and<br />

North Face with Benno Furmann.<br />

Follow in the footsteps of great<br />

mountaineers and celebrities by stepping<br />

into its luxe 1920s interiors. With a backdrop<br />

of sheer rock face and elevated position, you<br />

really will feel like a character in an Agatha<br />

Christie novel as you settle into the lounge<br />

with a large brandy.<br />
