Default Hiking in Switzerland

Hello! I am planning my first trip to Europe and I am trying to finalize my itinerary. I'd like to spend a couple of days (I'm thinking 4) hiking in Switzerland. I am into backpacking/hiking/adventure sports and am looking for the best city/cities to go. I am thinking about Interlaken...I am mostly interested in this area because it seems to have a lot of good hiking nearby so it may be a good place to base my trip. I need a place where both the city itself and the trails are easily accessibility... I am also wondering, do you think it would be best to rent a car for the days I am here so I don't have to rely on trains/buses to get to trail heads? Also, does anyone know if it is possible to tent or backcountry camp in this area either on multi day trails or otherwise or is camping pretty much limited to campgrounds? Any help, suggestions, or insight would be GREATLY appreciated!!
