About this guide

By Brienzerrothorn.com editors · Updated

Brienzerrothorn.com is an independent travel guide to Brienz, the Brienzer Rothorn and Lake Brienz in the Bernese Oberland, Switzerland. We are not Brienz Rothorn Bahn AG, the municipality of Brienz, Interlaken tourism, BLS or any hotel or tour operator.

How we research

  • Fares, timetables and the season come from the operator’s own site, brienz-rothorn-bahn.ch, which we read in November 2026. Each price names its source and the month we checked it.
  • Where sources disagree, for example the Giessbach funicular season end or the Swiss Travel Pass discount, we say so instead of picking one.
  • Ratings for tours match what GetYourGuide showed in the month named on the page.
  • What we could not confirm is left out or flagged, including 2027 ticket sales, boat fares and Ballenberg’s 2027 dates.

How the site is funded
