The Bernese Oberland is one of the most visited regions of all of Switzerland. Many people consider traveling to Interlaken, Lauterbrunnen, Thun or Brienz. However, there is this wonderful little fishing village called ISELTWALD that charms with its unique location and serenity. Laying at the shore of this incredibly turquoise lake, Iseltwald has a specially beautiful appearance, why people name it as one of the most beautiful villages of this region. Iseltwald village can be best reached by boat from Interlaken or Brienz. The boat ride is very scenic and quite comfortable. Arriving by car is possible; however, parking lots are limited; thus consider reaching by boat. It's in particular nice to walk along the shore of Lake Brienz and enjoy the various viewpoints over the houses of Iseltwald and the surrounding Alps and villages. Swimming in the lake is possible during June, July and August and pretty enjoyable. Great places are the pier near the ferry landing or the bay of Iseltwald. An eye-catching motif is Iseltwald's castle that looks very beautiful from various angles. Do not forget to explore the bay area with its many nice houses and photo spots. There are also a few cafes and restaurants for taking a break. Otherwise, walk through the various alleys and enjoy seeing the many traditional houses Iseltwald's. Iseltwald is a perfect place to visit for any budget traveler as it is not too touristy and the prices at the restaurants and hotels are lower than in other places in the region. Enjoy pure serenity and one of Switzerland's most stereotypical villages. Some people even claim Iseltwald is one of the most beautiful villages of Switzerland. This is what you will find out in this DjemoGraphic Episode.

![Top 10 Winter Switzerland - Christmas and more! [Travel Guide]
Winter in Switzerland is a great season, as there are plenty of great things to do! Especially up in the Swiss Alps, there will be a lot of snow. There will be no greens during Winter and thus, the activities during the white season will very much differ from Summer. Winter is the season for skiing, Christmas, sledding, carnival and snow in general. Having travelled across the country during this season, I present you the Top 10 attractions of Switzerland during Winter.
Up in the Swiss Alps, there are many beautiful villages that appear specially nice during Winter. For example Grimentz is very much worth to visit during this time. Just nearby, there is the Zinal Glacier that looks very fascinating with its natural ice cave. You will need to go for a two hours’ winter hike to reach the glacier. December marks the beginning of Winter and also of Christmas season. Visit the many Christmas markets all around the country, in the larger cities or in the villages. During this month, many towns transform into charming Winter wonderland. Sledding is another great and fun activity to go for during Winter. Great toboggan runs (tracks) are up in Andermatt at the Nätschen or at Bergün. Feel the thrill of the speed while going downhill. Great views you can get at the Grindelwald First, you will see the many peaks of the Swiss Alps and also can go for skiing. Very enjoyable is the cliff walk at the Grindelwald First that takes you around a massive rock. Also consider visiting the village of Grindelwald itself. Zermatt is a very highlight of Winter up in the Swiss Alps. During this season, you will often get unobstructed views to the Matterhorn, the landmark of Switzerland. There are various places from where you can get a brilliant view over the Matterhorn: At Zermatt village itself, Sunegga, Blauherd, the Rothorn or the Gornergrat. All in all, so many great things to do during Winter in Switzerland.

Very typical for Bern are the many arcades and the fountains. Bern’s old city is really a highlight, thus make sure to spend here at least half a day.
