River pearls
With the River Pearl PLUS label, we recognize untouched streams and rivers, as well as local people’s commitment to these waters. We have already awarded the label to some stretches of rivers. More will follow!

Recognised waters
Every year, an independent jury selects Swiss streams and rivers for us, which we recognize for their natural state and beauty. At the national Watercourse Ceremony, we thank the municipalities situated alongside these waters. We encourage them to consciously maintain the current state – for instance by getting certified with the River Pearl PLUS label.
