Bern · Bern & the Emmental · Switzerland
★★★☆☆ Beach & outdoors
No admission charge for anyone. Parking or transport may still cost.
FREE, and what the whole city does on a hot afternoon - you walk upstream and float back down on a fast, cold, very clean river. THE CURRENT IS STRONG AND PEOPLE DROWN EVERY YEAR: get out at a marked exit, do not attempt it if you are not a confident swimmer, and never after drinking. Summer only; the water is about 18C at best.
