LAUTERBRUNNEN is NOT the most beautiful Swiss Village: Here is WHY

Lauterbrunnen is NOT the most beautiful village of Switzerland. People keep praising this village being the most beautiful one in all of Switzerland, but in fact Lauterbrunnen is not. There are many more beautiful villages in Switzerland, Lauterbrunnen is just a favourite among tourists, many keep just repeating it. If Lauterbrunnen was the most beautiful village of Switzerland, people would be spending a lot more time in there, which they do not. There are many reasons why Lauterbrunnen is beautiful, but they are not enough to make it the number 1 among the beautiful villages. Lauterbrunnen is very touristy, in particular during Summer, the road is very busy, plenty of cars are passing and this makes Lauterbrunnen not to a tranquil village, which the winners of the yearly contest actually are. Lauterbrunnen was never voted the most beautiful Swiss village, even the locals do not claim their village being the most beautiful. Lauterbrunnen has a great hype and performs very well on Instagram, which makes it being a hotspot in Switzerland. Because most of the tourists do not visit many places in Switzerland, they end up saying Lauterbrunnen is the best village of Switzerland. There are many more. I do not say Lauterbrunnen is not beautiful, I love Lauterbrunnen, it’s a nice village but I came to the conclusion that it is clearly being overly hyped, the village itself is alright, the location at where the village is at however is fantastic.

Have you been to LAUTERBRUNNEN? How was your experience there? Fantastic, neutral, disappointed?

I've grown up and lived my whole live in the valley, at the end in Stechelberg. Lauterbrunnen is far away from a beatyful village. I've seen many many much more beautyful villages in Switzerland and beyond. I guess it's the green and the water that attract tourists. For the locals the tourism has become too much and many elderly people don't even go out during the day because they can not go through the mass safely. We as locals feel we just are in the way now and would better move away. It got just too much over the last few years and the social media spots destroyed all the beauty of the place by get crowded and disrespected the nice spots. The people don't know our culture and behave as they like, which annoy the locals most the time. I have some hidden spots, who are still magic and I would never share them on any platform. If it get worse, I will move away, maybe out of Switzerland. Everybody just looks at the money and the business and forget to keep the beauty of our land for the next generation. Sorry for the grant but it's a major theme here in the valley. Cheers and enjoy jour holiday responsibly

A very beautiful video. I imagine myself walking in these wonderful fields. Thank you, my dear

Yes agree with you abt Lauterbrunnen although we did enjoy the Trummelbach falls & used it as a base to visit the Schilthorn.
Our family visited Switzerland last Jun for 17 days & our favorites were Grindelwald, Zermatt & Wengen. 😍

great video, almost had a heart attack seeing that bus behind you though 😂

[tanchoonkiat]

Fully agreed! Especially when it's too touristy. I have the same feeling in Hallstatt, Austria now when compared to years back when I visited there with only some locals around.
Hopefully, the other villages in Switzerland can keep their tranquility over time.

I somewhat agree; perhaps it's not the most picturesque village, but personally, I definitely consider it one of the most beautiful villages. Moreover, this valley boasts several other amazing villages nearby, making a visit to this village worthwhile, along with exploring the surrounding areas. I appreciate the highlighting of places to visit in Lauterbrunnen; it's incredibly helpful for people planning a visit, which is fantastic.

[lauraezell]

Agreed. While it's a most beautiful valley, for me it's simply a stopover point to change trains to go up either cliffside. Murren is my favorite, though the views from Wengen and the Mannlichen should not be missed. BUT if you decide to walk the valley from Lauterbrunnen to Stechelberg--now there's a beautiful walk! And very few tourists.

Hi, Djemo! Your point of view is really off the beaten track! It seems like this is the first time you've been disappointed with a location. Nevertheless the nature is amazing, and thank you for the video and new knowledges 🤪❤

[violetlilac]

I have seen several videos of Lauterbrunnen, and it can be really loud with helicopters; which I thought was a shame. Thanks Djemo!

[cmondancewithme]

Another great Video of Switzerlad, thank youuu 😍😍😍 Can you maybe do a Basel Video in the future? ❤

[mneer]

Was there last year with my wife, its absoulutely stunning, like a postcard. I found that the people in Europe are not the friendliest which detracted from the experience. Otherwise i would come back just for the natural beauty. I am South Afrcan by the way....

Djemo you are Switzerland's Ambassador to the world. Hopefully not many instagramers watch your videos though.

[karenbognuda]

Thankful I visited at Christmas 9 years ago, was not as crowded or as hot! Still very beautiful though.

[elkakorutcheva]

I completely agree with you, Djemo. Although Lauterbrunnen is very beautiful, when massive tourism comes, it loses its charm. With the valley's geography and location nothing can be done :)

[RoRiodd]

Thank you so much. I am trying to plan my trip to Switzerland, and there are so many beautiful places that i do not know where to start.

[bobmald]

I don’t know if it’s the “most beautiful”, but I was truly amazed. As an American who lived in Germany as a kid and traveled to a lot of places, I was not expecting to be so blown away. I loved it. By the whole country honestly. But we were also probably a little lucky because there weren’t a ton of tourists.
