Hi Snofkenn,
Bern is not in the mountains but very centrally located, so plenty of options for things to do. You could do day trips to Lucerne, the Jungfrau region, Gruyères, even to Zermatt if you want to.

<<“What can I do during those 5 days”>>
Have you considered skiing, which is a common activity in the alps when there is a lot of snow?
<<“And I have another 3 free days which better bern or lucerne”>>
Better for what kind of activities? What are your interests?

Hiking in January may be limited by snow on higher trails. Also, some of the falls in the Lauterbrunnen Valley close during part of the winter.
The Trümmelbach Falls, perhaps the most spectacular ones, for example:
<<Open daily from April through November, 9am to 5pm; July and August from 8.30am to 6pm;”>>
