Against the breathtaking backdrop of the Swiss Alps lies a city that enchants every visitor with its beauty and charm: Bern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The capital of Switzerland not only impresses with its picturesque location on the River Aare, but also with its rich history, fascinating architecture and vibrant culture. From the cobbled streets of the Old Town to the green hills of the Rose Garden, Bern offers a multitude of sights and activities to discover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n What makes Bern so special? Perhaps it’s the majestic presence of Bern Cathedral, whose Gothic towers tower over the city’s rooftops. Or the historic Z\u00e4hringer fountains, which tell stories from times gone by with their imaginative figures. Perhaps it is also the relaxed atmosphere of the banks of the Aare, where locals and visitors alike enjoy the sun and cool off in the clear water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But to really get to know Bern, you have to go off the beaten track. This is where the Bern Foxtrails come into play. Our trails offer a new perspective on the city by taking visitors on an exciting scavenger hunt through the streets and alleyways. With tricky puzzles and hidden clues, the Foxtrails lead participants to Bern’s hidden treasures while learning about the city’s history and culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Whether neighbourhoods, the Aare or the old town – Granit offers you a varied tour through Bern. After starting at the railway station, you will pass through the pretty Sch\u00f6negg district and the banks of the River Aare. You cross the river to reach the famous D\u00e4hlh\u00f6lzli zoo. Afterwards, the next animal beckons: on the banks of the Aare, you will come across the “Mutzen”, as the bears are known here, in the famous bear park. The footpath then takes you through the Matten neighbourhood and along the Aare. Then it’s uphill to the cathedral platform. You stop at Bern Minster to admire the highest church tower in Switzerland before the historic Old Town with the Zytglogge tower beckons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
