Thun the heart of the Bernese Oberland with its historic old town

The romantic city of Thun on the doorstep ..

At the entrance to the Alpine world of the Bernese Oberland has Thun, the tenth largest city in Switzerland, an intact old town with magnificent buildings, squares and high pavements, dominated by the imposing Zähringer Castle.

What's possible in the world metropolis of Paris, we have in Thun since a long time. Shopping on an island full of shops, pretty cafes and restaurants. Who unusual, rare or simply typical Swiss is looking for something, is also found in the main street in the old town everything your heart desires.

Benefit from the great culinary offerings: So different the guests are in Thun, so are also the restaurants.

In Thun is always something going on. Enjoy on a balmy summer evening, the offer of open-air cinemas, the Thunfest (every two years with firework), the Musical on the Lake of Thun stage, and - when it gets cooler - the many concerts, theater and exhibitions. Visit the museums and benefit from large excursion offer. But nightlife leaves nothing to be desired.

If you want even more action, you can get in touch with many providers of water sport. Sailing, windsurfing and diving, the possibilities are endless!
