Gently rolling hills, lush meadows, beautiful forests and wonderful views of the Alps: scenery that will earn a place in your heart – the Herzroute.
The Herzroute (Heart Route) leads through the most beautiful areas in Switzerland’s Alpine foothills. The secluded trails, far from traffic noise and all hustle and bustle, are particularly appealing for exploring by e-bike. The route offers heart-warming encounters with the countryside and people. It wends its way through the chain of the Alpine foothills. And behind every range of hills is a valley with its own distinctive features just waiting to be explored. The aim of the Herzroute is its path. Switzerland as it once was is there to experience at your own pace. It's worth spending time at impressive vantage points. Small hamlets, stately farmsteads and picturesque small towns cater for variety. E-bikes are recommended to cover this route with ease as it primarily leads through rolling countryside. Points for bike rental and battery charging are found along the route. Strenuous climbs are thus easily mastered so that the route can be enjoyed by cyclists of all abilities and ages.
