This is just more parking behind the Sports center. I am not 100% sure if this one is 300 spots or the Sportszentrum one. But one is entered via the front, and one appears to be around the back (if you use it let me know).
The prices are the same as the Sportszentrum listed above.

Hi Ashley,
Thanks for your post, it is really helpful. I wish I could get some advice from you – I will have one day to explore some hiking options from Interlaken: Hiking from Lombachalp to Augstmatthorm ; or around Mannlichen ; or around Grindelwald. Which one does not need cable? I prefer drive there, then park, then hike within around 4 hours.
Thanks in advance! And yes, this is my first time in Switzerland.
Best Regards, Raye
