Best nightlife in Interlaken area?

Short summary – read this first

Olga is planning a trip to Switzerland next week for about 4-5 days, mainly to enjoy the views in the Interlaken area. They plan to stay 1 or 2 nights in Gimmelwald and are seeking advice on the best places to stay for nightlife, considering Interlaken and Wengen. They are a couple in their 30s, and while they understand nightlife may be limited, they want to know where to find the most options.

Key takeaways:
  • Consider staying in Wengen for stunning scenery, but it's quieter with limited nightlife.
  • Interlaken will offer more nightlife options, particularly in the summer months.
  • Check local resources for the latest nightlife information in Interlaken.

    We’ll be in Switzerland in a week for about 4-5 days. we’d like to spend most of the time just enjoying the interlaken area views. We are planning to stay 1 or 2 nights in Gimmelwald, but where would you recommend to stay the rest of the time? I was thinking about Interlaken or Wengen. We are a couple in 30s and my husband really likes the nightlife, so where would you recommend to stay with the most nightlife available (although I understand it won’t be that crazy in Interlaken area:)) Thank you so much in advance for your help!

    Hi Olga,

    I can’t provide any info from personal experience, as I haven’t been in the area at this time of year.

    Wengen is a much more scenic place to stay than Interlaken, but is pretty quiet. If there is any nightlife in Wengen, I would expect it to be at the height of the ski season, rather than in June/July.

    Below are a few links about nightlife in Interlaken that might help.
