Top of Interlaken - Harder Kulm
#winhkflight #harderkulm #interlaken #switzerland
We went to Harder Kulm for the food, panoramic view of Interlaken and sunset. If you are visiting Harder Kulm, I would recommend you to come in the evening to enjoy all in one. You need to take funicular to reach the Harder Kulm. If not, you can choose to hike up, there’s hiking trail. It is definitely a nice place to enjoy your meal with the panoramic view of Interlaken and music. There are live folklore shows performing traditional Swiss music from May to October. You can check online for their performance time. There’s an amazing steel structure for you to take picture with the breathtaking views.
I want to travel to Hong Kong to experience their culture, foods and more.
Most Scenic spot in Interlaken
#switzerland is the land of mountains and this one is of the best place to be for that. Harder Kulm, a mountain looming over the town of Interlaken, gives picture perfect views of 3 tall of majestic mountains across the valley.
Harder Kulm can be reached either by hiking or taking a scenic furnicular from Interlaken Ost station. The views as you climb up get even better as you will get to see the two stunningly blue lakes that the town got its name from. At the top. every single step offer opportunities to take memorable photos that will last for a lifetime. #awesomepic #scenic #viewsfordays #holidays

#newyearadventure
The Harder Kulm in Interlaken is a viewpoint at 1,322 metres in the Berner Oberland region of Switzerland. It will take around 10 minutes to travel up in a funicular (do take note of the last ride in order not to miss it).
The view is superb, amazing, and breathtaking.
The restaurant is a good place to rest and have some food in such a serene setting. We tried our first founde in Switzerland, and the waiter actually took the effort to "teach" us how to eat. Great service!

Interliken Observatory⛰️
#Overseas travel
The photo zone at the Interliken Observatory Harder Coolum has a long waiting line
and the space on the deck where you can stay is quite narrow,
so it is not easy to stay for a long time.
But it is a famous spot where you must take at least one photo.
There is a children's play area at the top
and you can also take a light walk.
Not many people hike Harder Coolum
I guess it is because it is not easy to walk while looking at the scenery.
It felt like walking into the mountains.
Interlaken Harder Kulm
#Overseas travel
The Harder Kulm I visited on the weekend
is very crowded with travelers who have come to Interlaken.
I started waiting at 2:30,
and got on around 3:10.
It ran more frequently than every 30 minutes, perhaps because there were so many people.
When you climb to the top of Interlaken Harder Kulm
you can look down on both lakes that Interlaken is surrounded by.
You can see Lake Thun on the right,
and Lake Brienz on the left.

Hiking Up Harder Kulm in March: A Swiss Adventure! 🏔️
#outdooradventure
Harder Kulm, the Top of Interlaken, is famous for its breathtaking views of Lake Thun, Lake Brienz, and the towering peaks of Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau. While most visitors take the funicular, we decided to hike up—and what an adventure it was!
In March, the trail was a mix of early spring freshness and lingering winter magic. The lower sections were relatively clear, with crisp mountain air and the scent of pine trees, but as we gained elevation, patches of snow and icy paths made for an exciting (and sometimes slippery!) trek. Good hiking shoes and trekking poles are a must!
The ascent took around 2-3 hours, with rewarding panoramic views along the way. Reaching the summit, we were greeted by the famous Harder Kulm Panorama Platform, offering an unreal bird’s-eye view of Interlaken and the turquoise lakes below. The cozy Harder Kulm Restaurant was the perfect place to warm up with a steaming cup of Swiss hot chocolate before heading back down.
Hiking Harder Kulm in March is a challenging but unforgettable experience, blending winter charm with hints of spring. If you’re up for an adventure, this is a must-do in Interlaken! 🥾❄️🌄 #HarderKulm #SwissAlps #HikingAdventures

The city of Zurich, a global center for banking and finance, lies at the north end of Lake Zurich in northern Switzerland. The picturesque lanes of the central Altstadt (Old Town), on either side of the Limmat River, reflect its pre-medieval history.

Day 9 of the Europe Trip -- Harder Kulm Panorama Platform
June 26th, today we plan to go to the Harder Kulm Panorama Platform. From Interlaken East Station, cross the river to reach the Harder Kulm funicular station. The Harder Kulm platform is at an altitude of 1322 meters. On the funicular, we encountered a disabled person in a wheelchair. The staff prepared a flat platform for him to get on and off the train, and there was a designated spot for wheelchairs in the carriage 🚇. The staff laid out the flat platform for him when he got off. This is something we see often, but every time it warms my heart. From the platform, you can see the entire view of the two lakes and Interlaken.
