In the southern hinterland of Berne, on the border between central Switzerland and the pre-Alps, Schwarzenburgerland waits to be discovered on your mountainbike. The deep cut valleys and high, extended plateaus of this scarsely populated area make a profound impact. The loop from Wattenwil in the Gürbetal up to Gurnigel, passing the Tschingelhütte and back to Wattenwil, is your biking hunting ground. Countless single trails and endless, spectacular viewpoints: Let's go!
