The course
The breathtaking race track, which stretches over 10.4 kilometers, places high demands on the endurance of the athletes. Especially the turn after half of the route requires a high degree of coordination and technical skill on the part of the rowers. In the skiff category, the start takes place at 20-second intervals, while boats with several participants are sent into the race at 30-second intervals. This regulation ensures a fair race of the highest quality.
There are numerous ways for spectators to combine the Bern Boat Race with a scenic hike. The starting point is at the Wohlei Bridge and the shore path leads to an idyllic picnic rest area. The turning point at Ottos Place is also in close proximity to the shore. The race can be viewed from various locations along the shore, providing a great opportunity to cheer and support the athletes.
In addition, the hiking trail around the Wohlensee offers an unforgettable opportunity to enjoy the beauty of the surroundings and to be active.
