Riding in the Bern region

On lakes Thun and Brienz the wind is often thermal and light: big wings, big foil wings and high-volume boards are the most useful. On windless days, pumping and paddle downwinding are popular too.

Buying locally

  • Filter by canton (BE) for an in-person hand-over.
  • For light wind, look for large sizes and plenty of volume.
  • Pay through the platform: the seller is only paid after hand-over.
