- Bern to Gruyere to BaselUp for brekkie at the YHA, then over the beautifully clear river to a café for a good strong coffee. The building is in a perfect location, sittings over the dam on the river, hovering above white frothy cloud-like waters. Posted by joshtracey in Josh & Tracey's Adventures | Aug 24, 2008
