The picturesque village of Brienz lies on the upper eastern shore of the glacial waters of Lake Brienz. The cobbled Brunngasse that runs through the centre was once awarded the title most beautiful street in Europe with most of the old buildings decorated with wood carvings which is what Brienz is still famous for today.

Brienz is the starting point for many excursions and hiking trails that lead you in to the mountains of the Jungfrau region. A popular trip is up to the Brienzer Rothorn via the rack railway. At 2350m, the panoramic views of the Jungfrau peaks are spectacular.
