Faulensee

A quiet lakeside home base for some of Switzerland’s most memorable landscapes.

The calm side of Lake Thun.

Walk by the water, eat at a lakeside restaurant, take the boat from nearby Spiez or set out for Interlaken and the Jungfrau Region. Faulensee lets you experience the Bernese Oberland without living in its busiest centres.

The lakefront, local restaurants and bus connections are close at hand, while Spiez railway station connects you comfortably with the wider region.
