Spiez

Spiez is best known within Switzerland for its lakeside castle and vineyards above Lake Thun. The town occupies a sheltered bay on the lake’s southern shore, with the Bernese Alps rising across the water and rail connections linking it with Bern and the Bernese Oberland. Spiez Castle, whose origins reach back to the early Middle Ages, includes a Romanesque church and anchors the historic waterfront. Winegrowing remains part of local identity, and the cultivated slopes around the town are among the most distinctive features of the Lake Thun shore. The harbour, promenade and castle grounds give Spiez a compact introduction to this Alpine lake region. Browse additional webcams from the Lake Thun area to extend your view of the Bernese Oberland.
