Itinerary

Our half day tours run regularly throughout the summer months and are suitable for all abilities. Our tours start in Bönigen on Lake Brienz where we travel across the River Lütschine, heading towards the north shore, exploring beautiful cliffs, the 12th century Ringgenberg castle and hidden beaches along the way. Your guide will offer instruction on how to develop your paddling skills and will also capture your experience with lots of photos to show to your friends and family back home. Evening Tours: The evening is a special time of the day where the lake calms down again and the sun starts to set. There's always a special calming atmosphere in the evening, perfect for photos and a relaxing way to end the day. The evening tour follows the same itinerary as the half day tour above. The session lasts 3 hours, of which we spend around 2 hours on the water. Our summer tours run from May until October. When the water temperature gets colder we start our winter tours (with drysuits) in October/November. If the dates or times you require are not available, please get in touch and we can see if they would be possible.

Hands-down the BEST kayaking experience, ever!

Published on Oct, 2024

If you find yourself in Interlaken, do not miss out on the opportunity to kayak on beautiful Lake Brienz with Hightide Kayaking School! The staff were all friendly and welcoming, and the guide paled only to the views, which were spectacular. I'm struggling to come up with the words to describe the beauty of the water's color, but it was unlike anything I had ever seen before. 10000/10 Definitely recommend this slice of heaven. They provided us with wet suits (since it was unseasonably cold), and individual kayaks, with very comfortable seats. Our guide graciously took photos of us with her GoPro and emailed them to us afterwards. She even shared some delicious smiley face cookies with us out on the water. I'm hard to please, and this company nailed it!

Unreal Kayaking Experience

Published on Sep, 2024

Views were amazing, and we found the experience to be very socialable and different. Chris was a very fun and interactive guide that made things even more enjoyable. Would highly recommend.

Would do it again!!

Highlight of our time in Interlaken!

Published on Sep, 2024

We had the most fantastic time on this kayak tour!! It was the highlight of our time in Interlaken. The views were absolutely breathtaking, and my husband and I (who had little kayaking experience before) felt like pros afterwards. Joelle, our guide, was so personable and had a great sense of humor! She also took some incredible photos of us on her GoPro throughout the tour. This was an unforgettable way to experience the stunning nature of this town! 10/10 would recommend this to anyone who is visiting!!

Even with it being overcast the views were still amazing. Our guide was patient and very personable, didn't feel rushed at all. Well worth your time!
