View of Lake Biel and St. Peter's Island from Schernelz Vineyards

Highlight • Viewpoint

If you come down from Preles and you have a view of the lake and a little further away on the Alpine chain, this is a very impressive effect. From here it is easy to continue towards the Rebenweg.

Bielersee Vineyards Trail

Highlight • Trail

The vine trail along the sun-drenched vineyards on the left bank of Lake Biel may be described as one of the most charming routes in Switzerland. The vineyards from Tüscherz to Schafis, as well as St. Peter's Island, were inventoried in 1977 as a landscape of national importance.

Schafis

Highlight • Settlement

Schafis is very small but still worth a short detour. You can only see the pretty, well-kept and beautifully decorated winegrowers' houses on the drive-through when you switch to the upper street (Schafisweg).

View of Ligerz Church and Lake Biel

Highlight • Viewpoint

Vines, Lake, Chapel, Île Saint-Pierre. Add a little picnic and a good bottle, and you won't want to hit the road again!
