Located in a deep valley in the Swiss Alps and surrounded by beautiful rocky cliffs and mountains, the Swiss village of Lauterbrunnen is one of the most charming villages in Switzerland among tourists. Not only do people worldwide come to visit this village, but this is also the must-visit spot among all the Indians. Why Indians!! Well, long story short, Switzerland is the dreamy destination among the Indians because of Bollywood movies. Several Bollywood movies and films were shot here and went viral among the Indians. Bollywood Romance means Switzerland that's most Indian beliefs. To be honest, even though I am not an Indian, I came to know about Switzerland by watching Bollywood films and that's how I got introduced to Swiss natural beauty.
We stayed at Brienz, and Lauterbrunnen took around 40 minutes to drive from there. In fact, it was compulsory to visit Lauterbrunnen, particularly because my sister wanted to visit this place. She had been ringing the bell of Lauterbrunnen in her mind for years, so this place became the priority on the list. With her leading the way with excitement, we could not miss a chance to explore this beautiful valley. It was all of this that built a kind of anticipation as we drove through the scenic route, knowing we were going to the place she had always wanted to go.
The tour to Lauterbrunnen was a highly anticipated trip and the beauty of Lauterbrunnen village didn't disappoint us at all. Rocky cliffs, mountains, Staubbach Falls, wildflowers, and wooden chalets give this place a sense of peace and tranquility. Located south of Interlaken, this valley is known for 72 waterfalls. Among all the waterfalls, Staubbach Falls is the famous one which you gonna see in the photos. We went there early so we had plenty of time to walk around.
The place is more beautiful than the photos, I always say the photos don't do justice to the beauty and astounding panoramic scenery of Lauterbrunnen.
Being almost 300 meters, this iconic waterfall (Staubbach Falls) cascades down a towering cliff, nearly 1,000 feet, therefore joining the ranks of the highest free-falling waterfalls in Europe. It's quite fascinating to see the falling water down a sheer rock face, tapers upward, and appears to float like mist well before it reaches the valley floor. A lot of tourists were there trying to take desired photos of the waterfall. I was far away from the waterfall yet I felt the soft mist from the waterfall.
This waterfall is visible from the village of Lauterbrunnen and only enhances the beautiful scenery of the area. The name "Staubbach" in translation means "dust stream," and on windy days that can perfectly describe what the waterfall looks like because it appears to disintegrate into fine mist even before it hits the ground. Truly amazing panoramic view I enjoyed while being there.
There was a trail near the waterfall for visitors who wanted to take a closer look at the waterfall. I followed the trail but didn't go further instead I took a walk near the waterfall area and took tons of photos.
The sight underneath the falls, with lush green meadows and dramatic cliffs surrounding the Lauterbrunnen Valley, is truly breathtaking, and cannot be expressed through words only.
After taking photos near and with the waterfall, we started strolling around. We followed some small walkways near the waterfall area to go near the Lütschine River and The village area.
We also found a few small restaurants and wooden cottages here. Most of the wooden cottages were basically holiday homes. We had to cross a cemetery before going to the riverside area and we paid our respect and prayers before moving forward.
And of course, I couldn't ignore these beautiful sheep grazing in the green meadow wearing cowbells. I don't know but I just love this beautiful moment and scenery in Switzerland; I just can't get enough. Watching cows or sheep grazing in the plush, thick, green meadows dotted with yellow wildflowers is quite a serene and mesmerizing experience. It's like those picture-postcard moments, beckoning one to come in and keeping the time slow.
Some simple beauty of animals in nature, with such an environment around them, practically attains a surreal quality. I can well sit there for hours, just watching them quietly nibble at the grass, absolutely enthralled with the tranquility of the time. It's one of those experiences that makes me appreciate the quiet, peaceful side of life that's so far removed from the rush of everyday living.
Soon we came to the Lütschine riverside area and then suddenly we decided to go close to the river. Obviously the current and the flow of the river was strong but we found some big stones to sit for photographs. The cover photo of this post actually represents that place. We were scared a little bit but we chose to take some photos and came back to a safe area quickly.
We crossed the bridge and took a long walk near the village area.
I am sure thousands of photos won't be enough to express the natural beauty of this location. Even though there were tourists, I didn't feel crowded as people were scattered and found their desired spots to walk around.
This is one of those places where you learn to appreciate your life and the creation of the world.
Each and every perspective of the location was breathtaking.
Soon we heard the roaring sound of the cloud so we knew the rain was coming. We decided to go back to the parking area but on our way, heavy rain started pouring. Well, when you are in the mountain area, you always need to be prepared for the rain. Our next destination was waiting for us but before that, I needed to buy a fresh new raincoat...

I really like the photos you share, it seems like a place I would like to travel to, at least once in my life :)
I hope you are well.

I am also going to keep some of the photographs for my personal collection, they actually express the beauty of the world and remind me of the moments I had there. I still cannot believe that I have been to such an astounding picturesque location, this kind of location only exists on the postcards...
I hope you are doing well my friend, have a nice weekend...
Images like these remind me a little of the lyrics of the song “What a Wonderful World”, sung by Louis Armstrong.
This song has a very sweet melody, and I like how it describes a world that can be beautiful, despite all the not-so-nice things that can happen to us.
I once read that it was surprising that Armstrong sang such a song, because he had plenty of reasons not to consider the world to be so wonderful. But it was a good thing that he had a very friendly character, and he always focused on the positive aspects above all the problems he faced in his life.
I heard this song, I can't remember where but I heard this song several times...It's a very popular song and perfectly matches these photos...
I agree, very strong message...
Really? I should check this life history then. I didn't know about that...
Hehe... awesome 😇😇. You look not just pretty but sekshy(In Korean) Sexy😍😍. I love the nature that surrounded you and having the background knowledge that Bollywopd made Swiz popular among tourists is awesome ☺️.
Nah Not Sekshy but definitely the surroundings enhanced and influenced the photo and that's why it turned out nice. I also love nature, gives me the flavor of freedom and solitude.
Absolutely and that's why if you ever visit this area, you will find a lot of indian tourists...
I am glad you liked this location and thank you for your time... Happy Sunday...
Hehe, I can't be told otherwise in the sekshy realm that you have shown us.
Yeah, nature is powerful and very calming. I can't wait to embrace a lot of it. Hehe.
Awesome!
I honestly don't know how to express such beautiful locations... Yes, nature is very powerful and offers us peace and a soothing feeling. I guess this is why Swiss nature is popular worldwide...
Gorgeous…. Love the alps…..
Thank you, I am glad you liked the photographs...
These pictures have been taken in a very beautiful style, lovely places, I wish to be there to see these charming views of beautiful nature.
Thank you so much, I am happy to know that the photos I have taken are attractive and justifying the beauty of the location...

You are very welcome @priyanarc! it was well deserved. - as always☀️
Thank you so much...
😘👍
seeing the waterfall being blown by the wind, it seems like the wind is very strong there.
The wind was strong but not so much, due to the height and force of the water, the waterfall created mist. I didn't experience windy weather but definitely I experienced rainy weather...
Thank you for taking the time to read my post...
The nature that you were shown is like hypnotic me.
I can understand that feeling, it's unbelievable...
wow, what a magical place, those waerfalls are beautifulls

Ma'am all these pictures are very beautiful and capture well. Thanks a lot for sharing the nice post. Waterpol is great for me.
Thank you so much, I am glad you liked all the photographs... This place is actually so beautiful, I have lots of short videos of this place. Unfortunately, I don't have enough photos and I regret that...
You are welcom!
Ahh, I envy you for those views, lol! Joking ofc.
But Switzerland is a different world when it comes to mountain views for sure.
I don't blame you because I also feel jealous whenever I see people living there or nearby.
Have you been to Swiss? If not I would highly recommend you to visit this area of Switzerland. You can find cheaper options and a lot of activities to do. Well, if there is another chance in life, I would love to go there again. It's beautiful...
Absolutely...
I hope you are doing well dear...Thank you...
Nope, never been to Swiss before! But based on what I see shared on here, I already know that I will need at least 2-3 trips to that country to see different parts of it.
Thank you, hope you are well too! Have a lovely week ahead!
I am sure you need a long and proper travel plan for the Swiss because there are tons of locations in Switzerland that are worthy seeing...But like I said before, I would highly recommend going to Switzerland once in life, it would be worth it...
Thanks dear once again, always a pleasure chatting with you...
This will definitely add to my new bucket list💕
You should and won't regret a single moment being there. It's actually a beautiful location...
