Make this a separate half-day outing when you want more space and a higher panorama than the Old Town offers. The hilltop combines walking and play areas; check the Gurtenbahn separately if you plan to ride up. The summit’s broad lawns and play facilities make it especially useful for groups with mixed interests.
What to look for
Hilltop meadows and views toward the Bernese Alps.
Useful to know
Treat the summit as a separate outing from the central walking circuit.
