    Hiking

    The Grandfey Viaduct on the railway line from Bern to Freiburg is one of the largest bridges in Switzerland. It was built between 1858 and 1862 and is 334 m long and 82 m high.
    With the electrification of the Swiss Federal Railways' rail network, the bridge had to be reinforced in order to be able to carry the heavier and faster locomotives and train compositions. Based on a concept by Robert Maillart, the pioneer of large concrete structures in Switzerland, the Grandfey Viaduct was given its new design between 1925 and 1927.
