Matten bei Interlaken railway station (German: Haltestelle Matten bei Interlaken) is a railway station in the municipality of Matten bei Interlaken, in the Swisscanton of Bern. The station was opened in December 2023.
In June 2020, plans were submitted for a new stop on the Berner Oberland Bahn line between Interlaken and Wilderswil.[2][3] By September 2022, plans were approved including a station and park and ride facility to be constructed next to the former Interlaken Airport site.[4] Two months later, ground was broken on the new stop and by April 2023, the new switches were installed for train traffic to be accepted which resulted in the line being closed between Interlaken and Grindelwald.[5][6]
The facility officially opened on 9th December 2023, with timetabled passenger services beginning the following day. The entire project cost 19.5m CHF.[7][8][9][10]
