Lake Gerzensee is privately owned. It's not possible to walk around it. From Kirchdorf, there's a dirt road that leads to a wonderful seating area.

Lake Gerzen is a lake located between the villages of Gerzensee, Mühledorf, and Kirchdorf in the canton of Bern, Switzerland. Its water level is at an average elevation of 603 meters above sea level. At normal water levels, the lake is approximately 8.5 meters deep on average and reaches a maximum of 11 meters deep, and has a surface area of 0.25 km², making it one of the medium-sized pre-Alpine lakes in Switzerland.

Beautiful view of Lake Gerzensee.

“Aareböötler” know this place. The so-called “Uttiger threshold” below this railway bridge is the most sensitive place between Thun and Bern. The Aaare is easily passable here on foot or by bike.

The Aare is a dreamlike river. Crystal blue water and pleasantly cool temperatures. It is hardly surprising that swimming in the Aare is a popular sport among the people of Bern.

Railway bridge over the Aare on the Bern - Thun route, near Uttigen. Below her is the Uttigerwelle, which is notorious among the "Aareböötler". This has capsized many a rubber boat and caused an unwanted cooling.

If you want to cross the Aare without getting your feet wet, if you want to watch the thousands of rubber boats in summer, if you would like to dive into the cold water of the Aare yourself... is in the right place at the Uttigen bridge with its Uttigen sill. And for those of you who can't get enough of the trains rushing by... et voilà. All train traffic to and from Thun thunders by here.
