Aeschi (860 m) and the somewhat higher situated Aeschiried (1000 m) lie on a sunny terrace and offer a wonderful view of the surrounding mountain panorama and of the Lake Thun. The original Peasant village is still marked of farming, folklore and tradition. If you want to escape the everyday hectic, you are just right staying with us. Aeschi offers an intact nature to refuel your batteries.

Thanks to the very central situation, all the well known tourist destinations of the Bernese Oberland are very close. Aeschi is easy to reach both by public transport and by car. With 50 holiday apartments, 7 Hotels, 7 Bed&Breakfast, 7 group lodgings and a camping site, Aeschi offers totally 860 beds.

Summer

Green pasture grounds, blue sky and the smell of fresh hay invite you to long walks. Aeschi offers you what your heart desires, a unique nature reserve with an imposing waterfall as well as a well kept net of hiking paths (42 km) in all four directions. Simple walks, short or long round trips, a mountain tour of one or several days or just sitting by the Lake of Thun and enjoy life; in Aeschi you find it all. Our seasonal offers like cheese dairy inspections, botanical excursions, farm experiences, pony riding, lama trekking and lots more give the possibility to vary your holidays.

Winter

Aeschiried offers a small but special skiing area - ideal for families and beginners with a marvelous view of Lake Thun. The ski runs are of easy to medium difficulty and the ski passes are reasonably priced. Cross-country skiers will be delighted by the romantic cross-country ski trail along the snow-covered Suld River, and 15 km of prepared footpaths are at the disposal of winter hikers. We also recommend our indoor swimming pool (with whirlpool and sauna). One of our special offers for children is a visit to a petting farm.
