Swisscom prepaid SIM
SwisscomWorth the premium here specifically: the valleys and mountainsides around Jungfraujoch, Grindelwald and Lauterbrunnen have the patchiest coverage on Sunrise and Salt of anywhere in the tourist circuit, while Swisscom stays strong even up at the Jungfraujoch summit. Passport required to register.
📍 Swisscom Shop on Höheweg; also available in Bern or Zurich before arrivingSunrise prepaid SIM
SunriseCheaper than Swisscom and fine within the town of Interlaken itself, but coverage becomes noticeably patchier once you head up any of the surrounding valleys toward Grindelwald, Lauterbrunnen or the mountain railways.
📍 Sunrise shop on HöhewegSalt prepaid SIM
SaltThe cheapest of the three nationwide networks, but the weakest mountain coverage of the three, which matters a great deal in a region defined by valleys and 3,000-metre peaks. A reasonable choice only if the trip stays firmly in the town centre.
📍 Not widely stocked in Interlaken itself; easier to buy in advance in Zurich, Bern or GenevaSwisscom eSIM
SwisscomThe same strong Swisscom coverage as a digital SIM, best activated before arriving since many visitors are only in the Interlaken area for a day or two en route to Jungfraujoch and don't want to spend time finding a shop. Passport details still required during setup.
📍 Activated online before arrival — the most practical option for a short mountain-focused stay
