A boat trip on Lake Thun and Lake Brienz is one of the most beautiful experiences our region has to offer. When the paddle steamer, built in 1914, starts ploughing through the blue-green water of Lake Thun, you forget about everyday cares. Feel the wind in your hair as you lose yourself in the rhythmic motions of the boat and the water.

Protect the forest and animals!
The forests in and around Beatenberg have a range of protective functions. Unfortunately, these have been somewhat damaged. Many wild animals have to fight for their lives in the harsh mountain winter. Skiing in the forests means additional challenges, and is therefore not permitted. We ask that guests observe signs and refrain from skiing, sledding and walking in the forests outside the designated areas.
