Aare at Wohlensee
Highlight • River
The Aare rises in the two Aar glaciers in the eastern Bernese Alps on the Finsteraarhorn, west of the Grimsel Pass in central southern Switzerland. Its course leads through the cantons of Bern, Solothurn and Aargau. First it passes through the Aare Gorge, cut into a high rock ridge, and then reaches the plain between Meiringen and the glacial Lake Brienz. Shortly before entering Lake Thun near Interlaken, it is canalized and leaves this to the northwest into the wide Aare Valley. In the area of Bern, it flows around the medieval city center and reaches Lake Wohlen in a westerly direction. At Aarberg, it is channeled into Lake Biel via the Hagneck Canal and, after leaving the canal, follows the course of the Jura Mountains northeastward. Below Brugg, it receives the Reuss and the Limmat before flowing into the Rhine near Koblenz (CH).
In the course of its geological development, the Aare was successively the upper course of the Danube, the Rhone and the Rhine.

Schloss Münchenwiler
Highlight • Castle
History: In 1081 the entire property was bequeathed to the Cluny monastery, because of sins, as the deed of donation states. Cluny built a priory on it. In 1943, the canton of Bern bought back the dilapidated castle and used it as a military accommodation and training facility. From the 1980s, the castle was renovated and later became the Parkhotel. However, the castle still belongs to the Canton of Bern.
