Park Overnight

What is that?
Park Overnight (PON) offers simple, legal overnight spots in parking areas—ideal for spontaneous and safe travel. The spots are meant for one or more nights and are perfect when you need a quiet, official place to park, sleep and continue your journey.
Our pitch is located right in front of our farm driveway, between the (Diebolds) stream and a hiking trail. The site is situated right along the municipal road, making it easy and convenient to access. In the evening and at night, there is very little traffic. The spot is ideal for a peaceful overnight stopover on your journey. You'll have the space all to yourself – no other campers next to you. Right next to the pitch is a pasture with our suckler cows. With a little luck, the curious calves will come visit you at the fence.🐄 Our cat "Henä" might also stop by to say hello.🐈 If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to us! 🤗 PLEASE NOTE: No infrastructure or sanitary facilities available!

Hallo, wir sind Christa & Jakim! 2022 haben wir uns auf einem Landwirtschaftsbetrieb kennengelernt. Damals waren wir beide angestellt, seit 2025 führen wir gemeinsam den Bauernhof von Christas Eltern im Nebenerwerb. Bevor wir sesshaft wurden, waren wir unabhängig voneinander viel unterwegs. Jakim arbeitete auf Farmen in Kanada und Paraguay, Christa in Hostels in Zentralamerika und als Tauchlehrerin in Spanien. Auf unseren Reisen haben wir einfache, authentische Unterkünfte fernab vom Massentourismus besonders schätzen gelernt. Dieses "einfache" Lebensgefühl prägt heute unseren Alltag auf dem Hof. Wir lieben das einfache Landleben, die Arbeit auf dem Feld und mit den Tieren, gemütliche Sommerabende am Feuer und ein erfrischendes Bad in der Emme - Wir freuen uns an den kleinen, feinen Dingen des Lebens. Da wir nun nicht mehr so oft verreisen, möchten wir Reisende bei uns Willkommen heissen. Auf unserem Bauernhof kannst du verweilen, die Natur geniessen und einfach sein – ohne grossen Luxus, ohne Menschenmassen, dafür mit Ruhe und Landleben. Komm vorbei, wir freuen uns!🤗

Shopping facilities
Grocery Shopping: In the village of Eggiwil, about 3 km away, you will find various shopping options: the Heidbühl butchery, the Stöckli bakery-café, and the Chäsi-Laden/Bieri bakery. A bit further away in Signau—only about 5 minutes by car—there is a Coop supermarket. The nearest gas station shop is in Langnau i.E., which is just under a 15-minute drive. Dining & Hospitality: Enjoy traditional Swiss cuisine at Moos-Pintli in Röthenbach or at the Bären and Hirschen in Eggiwil. The Blapbach treats you to regional specialties and a magnificent view, while Kemmeriboden Bad is renowned for its exclusive culinary offerings and its famous meringues. Fancy a delicious ice cream sundae? Then a visit to Restaurant Gabelspitz is well worth it. For a perfect start to your day, we recommend the Stöckli bakery for fresh bread, fine pastries, and a cozy breakfast. If you are looking for even more variety, you will find a wider selection of restaurants in nearby Langnau i.E. or Zollbrück.

Biking and Hiking: Experience the region actively on two wheels – for example, on the Marbachegg or along the Hüguhimu route. Hiking enthusiasts can enjoy diverse tours such as the Eggiwil House and Bridge Trail, or more challenging ascents to Schibengütsch or the Alpgäulücke in Schangnau. As your hosts, we highly recommend the Hegeloch – one of Switzerland's first tunnels – and the Chuderhüsi observation tower, which offers breathtaking views of the Bernese Oberland. Swimming: The Emme River is just a few minutes' walk from our location, perfect for a refreshing dip. Excursions: Discover the famous Kambly Experience, where you can sample traditional biscuits and learn all about how they are made. Immerse yourself in the history and culture of the Emmental at the Chüechlihus Regional Museum in Langnau and get to know the region's authentic side. A special highlight is the Egli woodcarving workshop, where impressive artistry meets genuine craftsmanship. For fun and entertainment, head to Strike Bowling. For a moment of reflection, visit the Würzbrunnen Church, one of Switzerland's most beautiful historic churches, nestled in the idyllic Emmental landscape.

Perfect overnight pitch for anyone passing through the Emmental. Very quiet location, clean, family-friendly, and cozy. Bathroom/toilet could be used free of charge (better than many a bathroom in an apartment). Host Christa and the senior farmer are super nice and chatty. Along with the warm welcome, we also received insider tips for the next day! Anyone wanting to stay longer should definitely check out the rooms – the "West" room in particular is a highlight ;-)
