E-Bike Tour From Interlaken to Lauterbrunnen Overview

Seeing the Swiss countryside from Interlaken to Lauterbrunnen on an e-bike tour was an experience straight out of a dream. Imagine pedaling through Switzerland's most scenic routes, with the majestic backdrop of the Alps, the soothing sound of 72 cascading waterfalls in the Lauterbrunnen Valley, and the promise of a delightful Swiss picnic awaiting you.

If you've ever wondered what it feels like to be in the heart of nature's masterpiece, this guided e-bike tour needs to be added to your itinerary.

Getting to the E-Bike Tour

The tour begins at the bike shop for Flying Wheels Interlaken. It’s located in the center of the city, just a 5-10 minute walk from the Interlaken Ost train station. You can easily find and purchase tickets from Grindelwald or surrounding villages to Interlaken using the Trainline app and then walk from the station to the shop. If you purchased a Swiss pass, that will cover your train tickets.

The Experience

Starting from the heart of Interlaken, you’ll ride through picturesque landscapes, along stunning blue-green rivers, and even stop in some small towns for water breaks and information about the area.

The e-bike makes it a breeze to tackle any uphill stretches, while also allowing you to truly enjoy your surroundings. 

***This tour is great for anybody who can easily ride a bike and is in decent physical shape. If you’re wondering if you can handle it endurance-wise, I would say (from personal experience) that if you can handle riding on flat terrain, you’ll have no problems on this tour because the e-bike can do so much of the work for you.*** 

As you arrive at the destination, the majestic waterfalls of Lauterbrunnen Valley, along with the lush green grass and mountains surrounding you create the ultimate backdrop. 

One of the highlights of the tour is a Swiss picnic in the valley where you can relax, marvel at the serene scene around you, and get to know your fellow tour mates.

After eating, you’ll head to the final destination: Trümmelbachfälle (Trummelbach Falls) where 20,000 liters of water are transported every second from the glacier walls of the surrounding mountains. It’s also a UNESCO World Heritage site!

Finally, you’ll return to Interlaken with more stunning views along the way.

Takeaway

This e-bike tour from Interlaken to Lauterbrunnen Valley with Flying Wheels Interlaken was an exhilarating experience that combined adventure, nature, and delicious Swiss food. The views, the ride, and the picnic – everything was impeccable. If you're visiting Interlaken and are a confident biker, this tour is a must!
