The train station bridge connects the new districts of Thun with the old town. The view downstream towards the Scherzlig lock is particularly beautiful. The bridge is often decorated with flags and flowers.

The Gurnigelpass can not only be climbed via asphalt, there are also variants for gravel bikes or mountain bikes. Here a small alpine road leads uphill and thus allows a traffic-free ascent through beautiful landscape.

The small village of Habkern lies seven kilometers from Interlaken in the direction of Lombachalp. Many stately wooden farmhouses stand around the village fountain, which is guarded by a hawk. Especially in spring and summer, when the red geraniums bloom in front of the windows, this creates a unique sight.
