The Nydegg Bridge connects the area around the Nydegg Church in the old town of Bern with the opposite bank of the Aare at the Bärengraben.

Up here you have a wonderful view (especially at sunset) ... and also a few nice restaurants and bars.

Bear Pit Bern

Highlight • Structure

A walk along the Aare to the Bärengraben and then, via the stairs or the elevator, one floor up to the next highlight... The Old Tram Depot and a delicious freshly tapped Märzen house beer, or a snack... Always worth a detour...!

The Schwellenmätteli is a restaurant located on the banks of the Aare, facing the city center of Bern. The turbulence of the river beautifies the landscape. It may not be the right time to come and eat, but it is still a great place to run in a pleasant environment.
