This lake is also a little jewel against the backdrop of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau, but also the majestic Stockhorn chain. On the lakeshore, the Grizzlybär restaurant with a small animal park and large playground for kids invites you to linger.

This small groundwater lake is a rocky desert in winter and a bathing lake in summer. It lies between the Aare and Uttigen, in a nature reserve, which is why it is also called "Uttigenseeli".

When there's water...' (usually in the summer) the "Blauseeli" is a popular place to relax for roasters, dog owners and families with kits and young people from the area. But as always, the principle applies here; "Where there is a lot of people, there is no peace". Past the Blausseeli, the bicycle and hiking trail leads past on a causeway. It takes you from Thun to Bern in a Schnutz without any major bends. but mutual tolerance is the order of the day.
