Bridge Days in Obwalden 2027

- December 31 (Thursday) – Take Thursday off before New Year's Day for a 5-day break from December 31 to January 4 (using just 1 vacation day, since New Year's Day and Saint Berchtold's Day are holidays).
- March 25 (Thursday) – Take Thursday off before Good Friday for a 5-day break from March 25 to 29 (using just 1 vacation day, since Good Friday and Easter Monday are holidays).
