BERN BEAR PARK

Berne's Bear Park is one of the places to visit in Bern where you can see wild bears that have wandered the area freely since 1513. Located along the Aare River, the contemporary BärenPark spans 6,000 square meters and was founded in 2009. Here, you can enjoy a "Bear Bath" in a river and explore caves to see bears in their natural habitat. On guided tours, you can learn about their past and see how they represent Bern's culture and heritage.

Bern's Bear Park, or BärenPark, is a unique attraction in Switzerland's capital city, offering a natural habitat for bears in the heart of Bern. Located alongside the River Aare, the park allows visitors to observe bears in a spacious and well-designed environment, where they can swim, climb, and roam freely. It's an extension of the historic Bear Pit, symbolizing Bern’s connection to its emblematic animal. The park is not only an exciting place for families and wildlife enthusiasts but also a significant conservation effort, reflecting Bern's commitment to animal welfare.
