During the approximately one-hour journey, enjoy spectacular views as the train climbs through green meadows, forests and impressive mountain scenery.
At the summit, discover one of the most beautiful panoramic viewpoints in the Bernese Oberland. Admire the turquoise waters of Lake Brienz, the surrounding Alpine peaks and the magnificent mountain landscape.
Take time to explore the summit, enjoy a meal or drink at the Rothorn Kulm mountain restaurant and capture unforgettable photographs before returning to Brienz.
