An enjoyable hike across the Gurten: from the gentle Lowlands to the rugged Highlands. Equipped with a whisky glass, you will visit various stations with selected whiskies, fine culinary snacks and fascinating stories about the "water of life" – naturally with the best view over Bern.
During the walk, whiskies from the most important regions of Scotland take centre stage, accompanied by culinary delicacies and exciting anecdotes. A special highlight is the tour of the Highland-Gurten's own whisky distillery, which provides an insight into local production.
