The Brienzer Rothornbahn train runs up the mountain overlooking Brienz, providing fabulous views of the Brienzersee. It is also the last mountain railway in Switzerland to exclusively use steam engines (although they also have one diesel unit).
Lake Cruises The clarity of the blue water and stunning mountain scenery make cruising on either the Thunersee or Brienzersee a great option

Biking Rent a bike in Murren, ride down the valley, and ride the cable car back up
Hiking There are countless great options, one of the best being hiking a mountain ridge parallel to the Brienzersee
