Tips

The 2,362 meter high Niesen is Thun's local mountain, at least from the perspective of the residents of Thun. The citizens of Spiez, on the other hand, also declare the mountain to be their own local mountain. Either way, the distinctive cone-shaped mountain offers you a breathtaking view of Lake Thun and the Bernese Oberland. You can reach the mountain on various hiking trails. Alternatively, you can take the funicular to the summit and descend into the valley from there.

Wonderful vantage point, which can be reached by train or on foot.

I would hike up and take the cable car down. Much easier on the knees.
About the local mountain. As a Thuner, I call the Stockhorn my local mountain. The Niesen is also beautiful.
