What awaits you on the Niesen
The journey on the Niesen Railway is already part of the experience. In several stages, the funicular railway takes your group from the valley up to the striking Pyramid Mountain above Lake Thun.
Once at the top, an impressive panorama opens up: the view sweeps over the lake, the Alps and the Central Plateau. The atmosphere is calm, expansive and inspiring. Ideal for getting away from everyday life and allowing new thoughts to flow.
That's what makes this supporting programme so special:
- Impressive ride on a historic funicular railway
- Panoramic views over Lake Thun and the Alps
- Calm, decelerating atmosphere
- Time for dialogue, exchange and reflection
- Can be combined with catering on the mountain
The experience has a clear, high-quality and lasting effect without having to be elaborately organised.
