outdoor swimming pools

Swim in the Aare or enjoy the sun on the shore

The Schwäbis River Pool  is a family-friendly outdoor swimming pool owned by the town of Thun and has welcomed bathers on the River Aare during the summer months since 1884. Those who prefer to take it easy can sit in the restaurant on the bank of the Aare or rent a deckchair to enjoy the sun.

The Schwäbis River Pool is open daily during the summer months (May to September). There is a short, quiet section of the Aare in which you can swim. The swimming pool has separate sections for swimmers and non-swimmers. The Schwäbis River Pool also has a paddling pool, slide and sandpit for children. There is also a play area with table tennis tables – table tennis bats can be hired for a fee. Would you like to relax on the Aare? Then why not hire a comfortable deckchair and a beach parasol?
