THE RIVER AARE
YOUR FAITHFUL COMPANION FROM START TO FINISH
 
The classic tour in Veloland Switzerland. Ride along the banks of the River Aare and you will encounter a chunk of Switzerland that has maintained its provincial charm, nostalgic farm life and unadulterated nature up to the present day. In addition it offers the full range of lodgings in hotels, youth hostels, in the hay or camp sites grounds with both Power and Relax options. Bike and Electrobike (NEW!) rental.

Gletsch in the midst of high mountains is actually the official start of the Aare Route, but the river has levelled the terrain over millions of years and from Meiringen on there are no steep climbs worth mentioning – this makes it a joy for cyclists to cross the Bernese Oberland, the Mittelland, the Three Lakes region and the southern foot of the Jura Mountains. Thanks to Sleep in the Hay, Budget, and Bike & Camp overnighting options it's an ideal route for families with children.
