4. Stockhorn
Demanding mountain hike starting from the village square in Blumenstein and going to
the top of Stockhorn (2190 m), or less demanding downwards starting from the summit
headed to Reutigen bus station. Enjoy the Stockhorn peak with its first-class view.
Stockhorn cable car upper terminus offers a panorama restaurant. Visitors who would
simply like to indulge in the breath-taking view can simply take the cable car to reach
the top. For both the ascent and the descent there are a number of different routes
available. The ascent and descent take 5 hours and 30 minutes each.
Blumenstein and Reutigen can easily be reached by local bus services. The lower
terminus for the cable car is in Erlenbach (which can be reached by train from Thun
station).
5. Niesen
The mountain of all mountains (2362 m) is considered the
most beautiful mountain on Lake Thun - and rightly so. Many
paths lead to the summit. The easiest way is to take the
Niesen mountain railway; for those who like a little challenge,
there is a footpath from the lower terminus. Another option
is to start the hike from Wimmis. For your own safety, please
be aware that the altitude difference on this hike is 1700m
and hence requires sound physical condition. Nature path.
6. Culture
The city of Thun offers a rich bouquet of culture. It has a stunning Old Town worth
seeing with countless historic buildings, a number of museums and galleries. The Thun
castle also has a museum; the local art gallery is housed in the Thunerhof and
exhibitions change on a regular basis. Other sites worth visiting are the castle church,
the Scherzlingen church as well as the famous St. Beatus Caves.
