Botanischer Garten Bern
Bern's green lung
Their programs range from concerts to poetry nights, guided tours, and art workshops. And the garden is beautiful and inspiring itself...

Don't EVER grow up
It's a shame that I didn't know of "Spielplatz am Schützenweg" in Bern when I was a kid. But now I love this playground for its vitality & creative vibe...

Eichholz
...and the living is easy
"Eichholz" is the closest thing to a beach Bern has to offer. Sports, sunbathing, fires as night... and swimming/floating in the river!

Fähre Bodenacker
Switch sides
Fähre Bodenacker is a ferry upstream the river Aare just outside Bern, where there's also a nice family restaurant, right in some beautiful nature...

Veielihubel
Take a time out and breathe
The Veielihubel is a great place to have a quick recharge on a busy day and relish the quiet, the sun or the view – whatever you need at the time.

Hammamn & Spa Oktogon
A wellness oasis
If you think the octagonal building – the first gas tank in the city – is already spectacular from the outside, wait till you see what is inside.
