Switzerland · Lake Thun
Spiez
A calm Lake Thun town with a castle, mountain views and one of the loveliest slower stops in the Bernese Oberland.
The feel of it
A small town framed by the lake and the Alps.
Spiez is made for wandering slowly: follow the lakefront, look up at the mountain views and take time around the castle and harbour.
It is a beautiful alternative to the busier Bernese Oberland bases, especially if you want a quieter lake-side stop with plenty of scenery built in.

Best for
A slower Switzerland itinerary, scenic lake days and a peaceful base close to the Bernese Oberland.
