This is a popular, scenic hike across the forested back of the chain of lakes. The descent is through the cool Twann river gorge to the shores of Lake Biel (Take care in wet weather: slippery stone slabs!). Along the way, you will encounter the administration facilities of the Swiss Federal Office of Sport and the Twannberg Holiday Village Foundation building, both of which blend harmoniously into the landscape. Minimal hard-surfaced areas outside of townships.

Abwechslungsreiche, meist in mittlerer Höhe dem südlichsten Jura-Hang folgende Wanderung. Unterwegs entzücken die einzigartigen Ausblicke auf den Bielersee, die mit kunstvollen Naturmauern gestützten Rebberge, die engen Gässchen und alten Häuser in den Winzerdörfern und die zuweilen mediterran anmutende Vegetation. Längere Hartbelag-Strecken im Bereich der Siedlungen.

The vineyards on the northern side of Lake Biel convey a feeling of openness and expanse. Undertaking the walk through the vineyard-covered slopes and through the forest on a summery spring day is a particularly beautiful experience. Predominantly hard-surfaced paths.
