YouTube Video Description↓

The next stop on our European adventure was Interlaken, Switzerland. It is a place that John has wanted to visit his entire life. Interlaken sits between two beautiful lakes and at the base of the mighty Jungfrau mountain range. We share travel tips and tricks on how to navigate this area by taking local trains, buses and gondolas. We were fortunate to have near perfect weather for our visit to Jungfraujoch, or "The Top of Europe." We also did hikes at Grindelwald First and enjoyed hiking near Lauterbrunnen. Thanks for following along with us and happy journeys, John and Bev πŸ’¬ STAY CONNECTED WITH US!
