Twann/Douanne

Highlight • Settlement

On the left bank of Lake Biel lies the historic winegrowing village of Twann. Viticulture has been practiced here since the 12th century, and fishing since the Neolithic period.

This charming winegrowing village is the perfect starting point for beautiful excursions. Winding lanes, old houses, and fountains characterize this idyllic village, giving it the feel of a medieval town.

Pilgrims' Trail section Ligerz–Twann

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Wonderful narrow path that leads through the middle of the vineyards. Interestingly enough, he is much less committed compared to the road leading up the road.

Twannbach Gorge

Highlight • Gorge

A magnificent trail winds through a bucolic landscape along the gorge. Numerous walkways and galleries carved into the cliffs offer breathtaking views of waterfalls and pools.

There is an entrance fee to the gorge (CHF 2 per adult and CHF 1 per child), and the trail is closed during the winter until Easter.

At 31°C, the Twannbach Gorge is a great place to go! Mostly through the forest and along the Twannbach, where you can cool your hot feet. A visit to the glass workshop is a must. Delicious iced tea and ice cream - homemade!

- Glassblowing workshop with mineral collection and café
- Grape oaks, reportedly more …
