Here you can take a nice break and enjoy the magnificent view. A bench under a shady tree invites you to linger. You can let your gaze wander to the Alpine peaks. A board explains which mountains you can see.

Saane River

Highlight • River

The river Saane is often equated with the Röstigraben, i.e. the language border between German-speaking and French-speaking Switzerland. Between the Schiffenensee, which is dammed up from the Saane, and Laupen, you cycle through a small, beautiful nature reserve.
