Leissigen is located in the district of Interlaken, in the canton of Bern, along the southern shores of Lake Thun between Spiez and Interlaken with easy access by car or train from Basle, Berne, or Zurich. With a population of only 800, Leissigen is a quaint, quiet, relaxing lakeside destination surrounded by beautiful orchards and bordered on the south by the 2250 meter-high Morgenberghorn. From your Leissigen hotel, you can choose from a wide range of outdoor activities including sailing, fishing, hiking, sunbathing, windsurfing, and biking.
From the landing area in the village, you can extend your enjoyment of Lake Thun by taking a memorable scenic cruise aboard one of the many paddle boats that traverse the lake. A particularly popular boating destination is Beatenberg, high up on the opposite side of the lake above the village of Beatenbucht. Once you debark at Beatenbucht, take the cableway up the hillside to Beatenberg to enjoy its 32 kilometers of marked hiking trails and spectacular panoramic view of the lake from the Sun Terrace.
