赤足徑及克奈普療法 in 圖恩 Thun

For pure romance, it is hard to beat a cruise across the waters of Lake Thun on the historic paddle steamer Blümlisalp.

Feed the ducks on the shores of Lake Thun or read and rest on a bench in the sun. Or take a walk along the paths leading through the woods, along the avenue and across the meadows that are so inviting to sunbathers in the summer (although there is no direct access to the water).

Schadau Castle was built between 1846 and 1854 for the Neuchâtel banker Denis Alfred de Rougemont. The location of the castle, on the southern banks of Lake Thun where the River Aare flows out of the lake, and with its views of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau, is almost as attractive as the architecture itself.

Thun's old town is the perfect starting point for exploring the city. From Obere Hauptgasse to Rathausplatz and the castle: this is the best way to discover the charm of Thun.

River rafting on the Aare between Thun and Bern is now possible by canoe or inflatable boat, with expert guides coaching you through fast and slow currents.
