The canton of Bern is split into different fare zones. You need a ticket for each zone you pass on your trip. You can open the zone map by clicking on the image. We recommend using the Libero or SBB app which are free to download. Otherwise Google Maps also works quite well with the swiss public transport

Parking Bern


Parkopedia

FYI: parking violation (= outside of designated area) or staying longer than paid, will result in a fine of minimum CHF 40.- ! And the chances are high that you will get caught.

By the way, in Switzerland we don't know the concept of "parking in the second lane", which is very common in other countries.
