Switzerland - Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau by Mark Sukhija

By: Mark Sukhija

The view from the Bergrestaurant Harder Kulm - a short furnicular ride above Interlaken - is nothing if not magnificent. The views across the lakes of Thun and Brienz Although the Bergrestaurant Harder Kulm is usually only open during the day, for the Swiss National Day (1st of August) they are open late into the evening which makes Bergrestaurant Harder Kulm an excellent vantage point for views of the Eiger Mönch and Jungfrau region at sunset as well as the fireworks below.
