Burgdorf Castle

Highlight • Castle

Burgdorf Castle sits enthroned on a mighty rock. Around 1200, Duke Berchtold V of Zähringen had the older castle replaced by today's mighty palace. At that time, Burgdorf was one of the central bases and preferred residences of this noble family from the Black Forest.

Today the castle is the largest, most complete and best-preserved castle complex in Zähring.

Lake Burgäschi

Highlight • Lake

Small lake with lido and other swimming opportunities. You can walk or ride around on foot or by mountain bike. A well-known restaurant, the "Gasthaus Seeblick am Burgäschisee" is highly recommended!

Start of Gravel Section on Swiss National Route 84

Highlight • Cycleway

From this point until the village of Bollodingen, the road turns into a gravel road. I would advise road cyclists to avoid this stretch of gravel and take the detour to the village of Hermiswil and ride on the busy road between Hermiswil and Bollodingen. The road on itself is of a smooth asphalted surface with no holes but during the morning and evening rush hour, this road has a lot of heavy traffic.

Cantonal Cycleway 84: Burgdorf to Langenthal

Highlight • Cycleway

This cycleway provides a great alternative to avoid to the heavy rush hour traffic between Burgdorf and Langenthal on the main road, however for road bikes there is a small section where road cyclists have to take the main road to avoid a stretch of gravel road.

Ey Bridge over the Emme River

Highlight • Bridge

There are various ways to cross the Emme in Burgdorf. Watch out for the small, narrow bridges when the weather is nice, with lots of pedestrians. If you want to cool your feet down for a moment, you can take a short break there. It is definitely beautiful and idyllic.
