Holidays in Lake Thun - Spiez, Gunten & Thun
Bernese Oberland, Switzerland
Without a doubt one of the loveliest lakes in Switzerland, Lake Thun spreads majestically from the beautiful steep sided historical town of Thun to Interlaken. Nestling along the shores of the lake or lining the terraces of the steep hillside, the villages are as attractive as the region is diverse.
Spiez has one of the most beautiful lakeside settings, nestling as it does among hills and vineyards. The scene is dominated by the picturesque medieval castle with its attractive gardens and the chalet buildings nestled on the slopes. With its rail and lake connections, Spiez is an ideal base to enjoy the exceptional visits in the area.
Gunten located on the shoreline is an attractive village with its flower-decked chalets and an ideal place to relax away from it all. The lake steamer and buses provide convenient connections and close by is one of Lake Thun’s most famous sites, the picturesque Oberhofen Castle, situated in the most beautiful gardens in the Alps.
Thun is a beautiful small town rising from the lake with views over the snow covered high Alps. The impressive castle towers above the late-medieval town which has many sights of interest. Along the shores of the river Aare is the Schadau park with a view of the lake and Schloss Schadau, Thun's second castle, which is built in the style of the French Loire castles.
