Schüss Waterfall in Biel/Bienne

Highlight • Waterfall

The source of the Schüss is above the hamlet of Le Cerf at the top of the Vallon de Saint-Imier, one of the longitudinal valleys of the folded Jura at 966 m above sea level. The Schüss follows the valley in a northeasterly and later easterly direction to Reuchenette.

Schüss near Reuchenette, around 1867
Here the Schüss breaks through to the south in a classic Jura gorge. Shortly before it emerges into the Mittelland, it forms the Taubenlochschlucht. The hiking trail through the gorge has had to be closed several times due to the risk of rockfalls.


The Schüss then flows through Biel/Bienne, where its hydropower was used intensively in the age of industrialization. In Biel the Schüss divides into two natural and one artificial branch. The southern branch – the Madretschschüss – flows directly into the Zihl, the northern branch – the Bielschüss – first passes under the old town, then joins the artificially created Schüss canal and finally flows into Lake Biel at an altitude of 429 m above sea level.

Interesting for people who have never seen how a lock works. Here you can see it up close. Above the lock you can cross the Aare.

Büren an der Aare is located - as the name suggests - on the river Aare. Büren was founded in the 12th century by the Barons of Strassberg.
Only a few medieval settlements have been able to preserve their historical appearance as intact over the centuries as Büren an der Aare. There is a lot to see, including fascinating handicrafts in various studios and, of course, the famous wooden bridge.
