Festival der Natur
Overview
Intro
From urban biodiversity to combating invasive neophytes and ecological infrastructure - the Festival of Nature invites you to rediscover our environment.
May 22 is International Biodiversity Day - and it is being celebrated throughout Switzerland. The focus: the diversity of life. From urban biodiversity and the fight against invasive neophytes to ecological infrastructure - the Festival of Nature invites you to rediscover our environment.
There is also a lot going on in Bern. Numerous events bring interested parties closer to flora and fauna in a variety of ways - whether in the middle of the city or out in the countryside.
When the sun goes down, the adventure begins for night owls: The fascinating life of bats can be observed on evening walks in and around Bern - silently hunting insects above the heads of visitors.
If you feel more comfortable in daylight, explore the Hasliberg hills or the area around Bern with binoculars - in search of rare birds and cheerful chirping.
And even seemingly unspectacular places such as gravel pits turn out to be true natural paradises. Families can experience exciting guided tours, discover animal inhabitants, polish sparkling stones or let off steam in the playground.
Curious nature lovers can also find out how orchids successfully overwinter, how butterflies are bred and what measures are being taken to help endangered species in Switzerland.
In short: the Festival of Nature brings biodiversity to life - with knowledge, heart and plenty of aha moments.
