Why go

Lake Brienz (Brienzersee) is a lake in the Bernese Oberland, in the canton of Bern; this record is the lake, not the Bödeli plain at Interlaken or a pier. Interlaken Tourism's Lake Brienz page describes villages and towns around the lake, naming Brienz, Iseltwald, Bönigen, Ringgenberg, Goldswil and Niederried, and waterfalls on the surrounding mountainsides. Interlaken lies on the alluvial plain between Lake Thun and Lake Brienz, per the same tourism board. The Ballenberg open-air museum's access page says boats operated by BLS run between Interlaken Ost and Brienz in summer. Wikidata classifies the lake as an area that belongs to no municipality, and the record's point is in the water, not a place to navigate to.
