“Excellent and well worth a visit”
Köniz
Köniz is a large municipality southwest of the city of Bern. Since it also includes a lot of scattered settlements, it still has partly a village character. Worth seeing in Köniz is a so-called Ofenhaus, which was built in the mid-18th century and includes a wood stove, farmhouse and granary. The Gurten, the local mountain of the city of Bern, is also located in the municipality. The Gurten is a popular excursion mountain. You can reach it by the Gurtenbahn.

“It was a fabulous day starting with a boat trip up the lake to Vitznau, then stepping onto the train up to Rigi Kaltbad. The mineral baths were totally relaxing, from the bubble pools to the stunning outdoor views, plus the herbal steam room, mineral pool tranquility and sauna. A truly sensational day.”
“It was a really exciting and varied tour where you learned a lot about the prominent Winterthur families. I also loved some unexpected facts about trees.”

“5 stars for the mountain views, lucky with the weather and to be seated on the revolving part of the restaurant. Most of the cable staff were confused with this app/ticket, only one out of six knew to scan the QR code with a different app, the rest let us through the barrier with a couple of them saying we should have had a paper or different sort of ticket. No extra cost etc. but be warned. Waitress in the restaurant didn't recognise the ticket either so had to check with a manager but all good in the end. Meat and cheese board for 2 people as expected - four different ones of each, a couple of pieces of cheese, four slices of each meat.”
“Bungee jumping was a real highlight for us and an experience we won’t forget anytime soon. Huge thanks to Allan, Martin, and Rayno – you were amazing! From the very start, we felt well taken care of and safe with you. Everything was explained thoroughly and clearly, and the relaxed, easygoing atmosphere really helped to manage the nerves before the jump. 😊 The backdrop is simply spectacular, making the experience even more special. Even for spectators who don’t want to jump themselves, it’s definitely worth coming along – just the view and the atmosphere are impressive. A unique experience, a great team, and a fantastic location – highly recommended!”
