Bern , strasbourg or Colmar

Hello,
My family will be visiting Paris and the Bernese Oberland this summer. We will take a train between Paris and Switzerland and want to stop at one of those places to sightsee for a few hours before moving on (staying in Spiez for a couple of nights before moving on to Murren). Which one do you recommend?
Thank you!

the three places are very different from each other. I have been to all, repeatedly.

But which I would choose at a particular time is irrelevant - unless we have similar interests and desires.

SO, what would you and your family be interested in? Which one calls to you? What about the kids?

Is this your first trip to France and Switzerland or have you visited some before?

Curious why you picked Spiez before the short journey up into the mountains?
