Separated Bike Path on Gösgerstrasse

Highlight • Cycleway

Luckily, there's this bike path, so you don't have to ride on the busy road. Tip: Coming from Winznau, you have to climb up to the road at the end. Downshift, downshift

The Aare is canalized here, making its course even more peaceful. A bridge allows you to admire the river in its entire width.
