Biel/Bienne

Biel sits on the Jura plateau where the Jura foothills meet the Swiss midlands, making it a hub for both road cycling and trail running. The Bienne Crit draws competitive cyclists through the city streets, while the broader Berner Rundfahrt routes push into the rolling terrain north and east. Runners tackle the Bieler Lauftage, a 100km event that tests the hilly local network, and the city's position near forests and limestone ridges makes it a base for serious kilometre-hunting on foot or bike.
