Bern Region

Steffisburg

The municipality of Steffisburg belongs to the Bern region. The municipality is situated in a beautiful pre-Alpine hilly landscape north of Thun. It lies on the river Zulg, a tributary of the Aare. Steffisburg attracts many visitors with its own special art collection. Also worth seeing are, for example, the large and the small Hochhus, which were built in the 14th century. In addition, hikers and nature lovers get their money's worth in the pre-Alpine landscape. An excursion to Thun and Lake Thun is very attractive. Many cultural and water sports activities await visitors here.
