Why this trip

The Aare loop is Bern's space for movement: in summer locals drift downstream through the turquoise water, others jog or cycle along the bank. The city of arcades seems calm at first glance, but anyone who walks notices the hills, above all on the climb to the Rosengarten with its view of the old town. The Zytglogge, the Botanical Garden and the Dählhölzli are stations for days with moderate distance. Interlaken, Gstaad and Grindelwald lie so close as neighbours that day tours into the Alps become possible, with stages from the train.

If you want to spend a day in the mountains, take the train to Grindelwald, climb to the First and hike to the Bachalpsee. That is a route with moderate ascent and a wide view, and in the evening you are back in Bern, without having to plan luggage and an overnight stay. June to September is the time for water and mountains. The hotel Sterne offers a base in the city as accommodation.

How Aare, old town and Alpine day are spread across your planning is something you discuss in the video call, to match your fitness.
