Lauterbrunnen | Switzerland Photo Spot
Share this Page
Lauterbrunnen Valley, tucked away in Switzerland’s Bernese Oberland, is a breathtaking spectacle that serves as a dream canvas for photographers. Characterized by its iconic cliffs and waterfalls, including the famous Staubbach Falls, the valley offers an array of elements for composition, from the idyllic pastoral scenes of grazing cattle to the towering peaks of the Alps. The location is a four-season wonderland, offering snow-covered landscapes in winter and wildflower meadows in summer, meaning there’s no “bad” time to visit. Depending on the season, your essential kit could range from ND filters to capture the smooth flow of waterfalls, to a wide-angle lens for expansive landscape shots and a telephoto lens for capturing distant alpine details. Public transport is available to various viewpoints, but hiking can get you to even more secluded spots. Since you’re in a valley, consider the lighting conditions throughout the day; mornings and late afternoons offer the most flattering light.
