Winter in Bern
When Bern slows down in winter, Switzerland’s capital reveals its special magic. The UNESCO-listed Old Town of Bern, with its historic arcades, atmospheric alleys and festively illuminated squares, invites visitors to relaxed strolls and enjoyable breaks in cozy cafés.
Nature is always close by. Winter walks, snowshoe tours or a trip to the Gurten combine outdoor activity with impressive views of the snow-covered city. In the heart of Bern, ice skating on Federal Square adds a touch of winter fun.
Whether you are a culture lover, a food enthusiast or simply seeking relaxation, Bern offers peaceful moments and culinary highlights in winter, such as a warming fondue. Urban life and nature come together here in a particularly charming way.
