A tributary of the left bank of the Rhine that runs through Switzerland. It is the longest river in the country, with a total length of 295 km. It originates in Lake Grimsel on the east side of the Finsteraarhorn in the eastern Bernese Alps, flows northwest through Lake Brienz and Lake Thun, and flows through the capital Bern and into Lake Biel. From there it turns east-northeast along the Jura mountain range and joins the Rhine on the border with Germany. It is navigable as far as Thun, and is an important transportation route for landlocked Switzerland, and many hydroelectric power plants are located in the upper reaches.
