Days between lake, city and mountains

The Lake Thun region combines impressive natural surroundings with professional infrastructure and sustainable values. A reliable base for seminars, meetings and events.

A networked region for successful events

The Lake Thun region combines lake, town and mountains in a manageable area. Thun and Spiez form two closely linked locations on the lake, urban in character and yet at the same time decelerated and close to nature. This proximity creates short distances, clear processes and a wide range of possible combinations for seminars, congresses and business events.

What makes the region special is the interplay of location, infrastructure and committed local people. This results in events that are professionally organised and at the same time feel personal and harmonious.
