Along the Panorama Route Thunersee from Thun to Sigriswil

The first stage of the hike leads from the town of Thun, with its medieval castle, past idyllic places like Hünibach and Aeschlen. Shortly afterwards, the spectacular Sigriswil panorama bridge high above Lake Thun awaits to be crossed. The 340-meter-long, spectacular panorama bridge crosses the Gummi Gorge at a height of 180 meters. It is the centerpiece of the overall Panorama Route Thunersee project and connects the villages of Aeschlen and Sigriswil. Crossing the suspension bridge is subject to a fee (reduced price with guest card). The view of mountains and lake is included for free.
