← Berner Oberland Part 1 · Valais Part 1 →

The second half of Fodor’s Berner Oberland chapter feels like the guide finally lets you breathe after all the Jungfrau hype from Part 1. You still get Grindelwald and the Eiger Express, but the story widens onto Lake Brienz, Sherlock Holmes territory, castle-lined Lake Thun, and then Gstaad, where Swiss folk charm meets jet-set money.
