Thun is idyllically situated on the shores of Lake Thun and its outflow, the Aare. It is considered the gateway to the Bernese Oberland and is an excellent starting point for excursions into the mountains. Thun is connected to Interlaken by paddle steamer on the lake route. The historic town center lies about 1.5 km from Lake Thun on the Aare River. Above it towers Thun Castle with its distinctive turrets. The historical buildings and a long history of the region blend perfectly with a modern urban development and culture.
