Damn. That looks so unreal. I had to check what sub because I thought it was AI generated.

I would say June to August for green and flowers in the mountain, and October 15- Nov 10 for Autumn colors (but cold)

I go every year in July. Last year there was a heatwave and we cooked. Other years its been temperate. Basically the Swiss alps are so changeable you need to bring 3 seasons of clothes for summer!

No wonder my nan found it so easy to move from Switzerland to England, our summers also pretend to be every other season.

I'd recommend visiting the Interlaken area (including Lauterbrünnen and Grindelwald) around May. It's not the warmest month but the weather will still be pleassant most likely. The main reason for this is the lakes: They'll be clear blue in the spring because of the recently melted alpine ice, while the lakes will look pretty much like a regular dark lake in October..

also, the waterfalls at Lauterbrunnen will be more beautiful in spring because of the melting snow. We went in October and it was not nearly as impressive as the pictures.

This is true. I know because I've not been to Switzerland.

I thought so too because I live in Switzerland and this isn't what Swiss mountains look like. I've also never seen so many thistles crowded like this in the mountains.

Oh no, it's I can confirm it is not AI-generated: I have been to this place several times !

It would be the "lacs de fenêtre", somewhere near the Grand-Saint Bernard Pass, at the border of Italy and Switzerland. The mountains in front are all parts of the Mont-Blanc massif. The hike is "easy" if you start from La foully and not from the pass ;)

This specific spot is often used by commercials, in switzerland you often get to see this picture (of this specific landscape). I am pretty sure the swiss national railway (SBB) used it a few months ago.
