A pale morning spreads across Lake Brienz as the driver eases the eco-van toward Iseltwald’s wooden pier. The lake’s mineral-blue water tilts light into the trees and the pier’s planks creak underfoot; you can already see the steep, plunging wall of Lauterbrunnen in the distance, a cut through the Alps where waterfalls dare you to look up.
