West, Switzerland

The Interlaken West railway station can be found in the Swiss resort town of Interlaken, in Bern canton. Interlaken is served by two stations, one of which is Interlaken Ost, both located on the Thunersee line of the BLS AG. In addition to the BLS trains, passengers can also access the station by the SBB or Deutsche Bahn. Originally known simply as Interlaken, Interlaken West was the first station to be opened in the town, when the Bödelibahn railway reached it from Därligen, on Lake Thun in 1872. Approximately two years later, the railroad was extended to Bönigen, on Lake Brienz, via Interlaken Zollhaus station.
