Tips
On a small hill above Fahrni, the Eduard Imhof Memorial commemorates the famous Swiss cartographer and relief artist 🗺️📚. Imhof shaped Swiss cartography like no other with his three-dimensional, hand-drawn relief maps.Highlights:
✅ Quiet, historic site with views of the Bernese Alps
✅ Small memorial with an information panel about the man and his work
✅ Ideal as a short detour during bike or hiking tours around Heimenschwand, Steffisburg, or RöthenbachRecommendation:
Take a short break, learn about Swiss map history, and enjoy the view 👀🌄. Not an official rest area, but very quiet.translated by
