This hike takes you in a spiral up to a hill known as "Zur Luftstation". From up there you have a breathtaking panoramic view of Bern and the surrounding countryside.

At the foot of the hill is also the grave of Paul Klee, which makes the place even more artistic and historical.

At the Schosshaldenfriedhof there is a hill "to the air station" that you climb in a spiral, always with a great view in all directions. At the foot of the hill is Paul Klee's final resting place.
