Our cycling tips in and around Bern
Where we love to ride, grab a coffee or have a glass of wine
Why Bern is such a popular cycling destination ?
Bern is definitely a cycling town as evidenced by the number of cyclists on the roads come rain or sun.
More importantly in just 10 minutes you can be out of the city centre and in proper Swiss countryside. Pastures and views of the Alps!
Take cycling Route 888 – also known as the “Green Belt”, for a 60 km loop (900 Mts vertical ascent), which will allow you to explore the city and its countryside. You first head South out of Bern, through meadows until you arrive at Lake Wohlen. Turning back North, the route will reward you with views of the Bernese Alps and the Aare river.
For something more energetic do the Emmental tour (105 km and 2305 vertical Mts) which will test your legs but also take you to the most beautiful lookout points in the region.
The official Canton of Bern tourist website provides really good information on some of the best cycling routes in the region.
