What awaits you at the Lake Thun Sailing School
The Lake Thun Sailing School offers an uncomplicated introduction to sailing - even without previous experience. Your group will experience Lake Thun actively on the water, accompanied by trained instructors who combine safety, guidance and ease.
Whether as a guided sailing excursion, a joint guest sailing trip or an individual team experience: the programme is tailored to the group. Anyone who wants to can lend a hand and take the helm - or simply enjoy, watch and take in the view.
That's what makes this supporting programme so special:
- Sailing possible without prior knowledge
- Accompanied by an experienced skipper
- Impressive backdrop of the lake and the Alps
- Active but relaxed group experience
- Several locations directly on Lake Thun
Why and how it suits the business event
Sailing brings together exercise, teamwork and experiencing nature. On the water, shared moments are created without the pressure to perform. The programme is clearly structured and professionally supervised. This creates an active balance to meetings, which releases energy and at the same time offers space for dialogue.
Particularly suitable for:
- Company and team events in summer
- Active programme items around seminar days
- Groups who enjoy exercise without competition
- Customer events with a connection to nature and adventure
- Events that playfully strengthen cooperation
Whether as a short change of perspective or as a half-day experience, the sailing programme can be flexibly adapted to group size, time budget and desired intensity.

How does the supporting programme work
