Short Aare run

The green-blue Aare flows through Bern just a few minutes' jog from the city center. Whether for a short route or a slightly longer stretch - all running fans will get their money's worth here.

So close to Bern's old town and yet in the middle of nature. The banks of the Aare are the perfect place for a jog. Here you can enjoy "urban nature" to the full and it becomes clear why Bern is one of the greenest cities in the world. If you jog through Bern's famous Marzili outdoor pool, you will also have a spectacular view of the old town and the Bundeshaus. In summer, a subsequent "Schwumm" (swim) in the Aare is a cool reward. Please observe the measures of the SLRG.
