Gantrisch Nature Park, Nature park in Bern region, Switzerland
The Gantrisch Nature Park spans 406 square kilometers across the Bern-Fribourg-Thun triangle, containing dense forests, mountain ranges, and wild canyons near Schwarzsee lake.
The establishment of Gantrisch Nature Park in 2012 united 19 municipalities in a conservation effort, incorporating ancient structures like Grasburg castle and Rüeggisberg monastery.
The park's territory maintains traditional Swiss farming practices, with four times more agricultural workers than the national average, preserving local food production methods.
Visitors can access the park through multiple entry points including Riggisberg, with detailed route information and transport connections available at the Schwarzenburg administrative office.
Three astronomical observatories within the park's boundaries allow visitors to study the night sky without interference from city lights.
