Interlaken Food Tours Guide 2026

The culinary side of Interlaken — which food experiences are worth booking and which to do yourself.

By Updated

Interlaken has 7+ food tours and culinary experiences covered in this guide, led by Alpine Farm and Cheese Tour, Sunset Sledding and Cheese Fondue and Snowshoe Tour with Swiss Cheese Fondue. Each entry below includes the practical details — what it costs, when to go, and how to plan around it.

Interlaken is a German-speaking resort town in the Bernese Oberland, set on the narrow strip of land between Lake Thun and Lake Brienz. It is Switzerland's adventure capital and the main gateway to the Jungfrau region, with views of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau, lake cruises, paragliding and trains to Jungfraujoch, Grindelwald and Lauterbrunnen. Prices are high, but the town is compact, walkable and very well connected by rail.

A Swiss Travel Pass or Halbtax discounts the Harderbahn funicular; the Berner Oberland Pass gives half price.

Carry some cash: farm cheese is sold at about CHF 20 per kilo (~$25), paid in cash on the farm tour.
