This is a very small site with the only facilities being toilets, launderette and hook-ups but it is in superb position right on the lakeside. We turned up on without booking and stayed for nearly 2 weeks. We had a superb lakeside pitch - our van was about 2 metres from the water's edge with uninterrupted views along the Brienzersee towards Interlaken and the mountains. This site takes tents too. The owner, although a little officious at first, became very friendly as time went on. When we were leaving he even came out on to the road to hold up the traffic to let us out!
The Bernese Oberland around Interlaken is stupendously beautiful lake and mountain scenery. The Swiss transport system is very impressive with a wonderful range of train, cable cars, buses and boats which enabled the car to be parked-up. We used our bikes a lot too.
The site is very close to the picturesque lakeside village of Brienz which is famous for woodcarving. It is quieter than Interlaken which we found rather busy at times. It has its own railway station, mountain railway and lake boat station within walking distance of the campsite. We bought a combined rail and cable car pass and hardly used the car all the time that we were on the site. The transport pass, although very expensive, gave us access to all the main peaks including the spectacular Jungfraujoch with its glacier and ice cavern and Schilthorn made famous in the James Bond Film 'On her Majesty's Secret Service'. Although our children were quite young we were able to walk in the mountains by using the cable cars and walking between them.
Interlaken and Meringen are within easy travelling distance and the valley floor is flat enough for cycling. We cycled to Meringen and the nearby Reichenbach falls, where Sherlock Holmes 'died'!?? and, also, visited the Sherlock Holmes Museum in the former English Church in Meringen. En route a very helpful Swiss motorist stopped and, in perfect English, directed us to a beautiful minor road for cycling - all orchards and flower-decked chalets, because he thought the main road was too busy for our family cycle! Meringen, also, had a wonderful selection of outdoor toys, stilts, etc, in a public square, near the centre of the town. Our boys had a great time there.
Just writing this brings back many happy memories of a super caravan holiday in staggeringly beautiful surroundings. Switzerland is, also, a very clean and efficient country. Although the campsite was not too expensive we found that food and other things tended to be.
