Easy Walks near Interlaken (Switzerland) – Recommendations and Tips

Perceptions of what constitutes an easy walk vary considerably. My criteria are that the walk should be shortish (less than two hours) and have good paths that are not unduly steep. High level walks should also have good transport links to both the start and the finish. And there are many possibilities within striking distance of Interlaken, all surrounded by beautiful scenery, all worthwhile. Some, however, stand out by virtue of their magnificent setting, outstanding views or special interest.
