"Bear Park offers a spacious and naturalistic environment for Bern’s bears. Located along the Aare River, it’s an ideal spot for a leisurely stroll and to observe these majestic creatures in a setting that mimics their natural habitat. The park also provides great views of the river and the city."
Jenna Aya
"Bern's bear pit is home to 3 bears, Björk, Finn, and Ursina. If you go down the stairs along the bear pit, you can sit along the River Aare and maybe catch a closer look at one of the bears. "

"Please note that the bears go into hibernation from late October to early March, so they are not often visible during that time."
