Panorama Rundweg Thunersee

The Lake Thun repeatedly appears from a variety of angles on a hike along the Lake Thun panorama round trail. The trail around the lake was enhanced with two spectacular hanging bridges in 2012: over the Spissibach stream in Leissigen and the Gummischlucht gorge near Sigriswil. The bridges, the panorama and the views of the lake can be explored along 56 kilometres of hiking trails with few height metres to master and only a few hundred meters above Lake Thun.

One highlight is the spectacular panoramic bridge just before Sigriswil. High above Lake Thun, the modern architecture and high stability of the bridge ensure that the adrenalin kick is not too intense. The panoramic bridge at Sigriswil is the longest (340 metres) and also highest (182 metres) bridge on the route.

The trail continues above Lake Thun to Merligen. Between here and Interlaken, hikers taking the Lake Thun panorama trail meet pilgrims travelling to Santiago de Compostela. From Interlaken, the trail leads to Meielisalp high above Leissigen and then continues to Spiez, on the most beautiful bay in Europe. The hanging bridge over the Spissibach stream in Leissigen is almost 60 metres above the stream with a length of 142 metres. Crossing it is an exceptional experience for people of all ages. On Meielisalp you also enjoy wonderful views of Lake Thun, a special ambiance and hospitality. The trail continues via Spiez to end in Thun.
