About us

The Swiss Bike Park is oriented towards the needs of competitive sports as well as sports and leisure tourism. As a destination for everyone, its target groups include not only bikers, but also children and young people, senior citizens, companies, groups, schools, competitive athletes and people with special needs. Nobody is too old or too young for it. Neither to learn something new, nor to experience the park and its diversity.

Foundation

The primary purpose of the Swiss Bike Park Foundation is to promote sporting activity among the Swiss population. The focus is on the bicycle. The foundation promotes the healthy and safe use of bicycles by children and young people and aims to teach them not only technical and riding skills, but also safe and considerate behavior in road traffic. It is dedicated to projects in which offers are created for bicycle enthusiasts in the areas of road safety, health, leisure and sport for the entire population. Therefore, the foundation supports, as a first project, the realization of the Swiss Bike Park Oberried (Bern).
 

Furthermore, the Swiss Bike Park Foundation establishes a competence center on the topic of "Swiss Tourism and the Bike" with the aim of contributing to the strengthening of tourism and becoming a Switzerland-wide multiplier. For this purpose, it promotes cooperations as well as innovations and provides knowledge and products for projects in this context.

Project applications are supported in stages, depending on the project phase (planning, financing, implementation). In principle, holistic and long-term bike park projects are supported. Concept and play of the projects must be based on our four pillars:

  • Children, youth & adults must benefit

  • Inclusion considerations must be a part of the project

  • Driving safety, health and mobility considerations must be a component of the project

  • Projects must benefit society: be open to the public, free of charge or very low cost


According to the purpose of the foundation, the Swiss Bike Park Foundation is not allowed to support individual athletes. However, we are happy to refer to the Foundation Fritz Bösch, which promotes young talents, supports them and brings them to success: www.stiftung-fritz-boesch.ch

2021, the Swiss Bike Park was nominated for the innovation award "Milestone - Excellence in Tourism". In addition, many exciting projects were implemented.

What other exciting projects have been implemented or are in the process of being implemented can be found in the following activity report.
