Aare riverside steps by Dählhölzli Bridge

Highlight • River

Below the path it is nice to sit on the Aare. A kind of stone staircase offers a lot of space to sit and is not visible from the path above. If you don't know that you will find such a lush place there, you just walk by, because you don't expect it to go on behind the stone wall.

Zytglogge Clock Tower

Highlight • Monument

Originally a defensive tower, it was converted into a prison in the 13th century and later into a clock tower. Today, it houses one of the oldest astronomical clocks in Switzerland and a carillon.

The Zytglogge is famous for its intricate clock, which not only tells the time but also depicts the movements of the sun, moon, and stars. It also features playful figures that move at specific times.

The Bernese arbors

Highlight • Monument

We call the arcades here in Bern "Lauben". The total of six kilometers of arcades in Bern's old town form the longest covered shopping promenades in Europe. The arcades are part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site in the city of Bern.

The Nydegg Bridge is a significant cultural monument and an important traffic artery in Bern. It offers a beautiful view of the Old Town and the Aare River.

Bear Park Bern

Highlight • Structure

Bear Park, Bern
A hilly park with a 19th-century bear pit, now home to many brown bears (the city's heraldic animal).

The Bernese bears live in the Bear Park right in the heart of the city. Exclusively situated with a view of Bern's UNESCO-listed Old Town, the bears live in the park on the banks of the Aare River. The approximately 5,000-square-meter grounds extend from the former bear pit down to the banks of the Aare and are fully accessible. The "Bear Train" provides a quick, wheelchair-friendly connection between the riverbank and the upper part of the park. The panoramic inclined lift can be used free of charge. A unique experience: gliding through the park past the bears' noses!
