Gurbrü lies in the Swiss plateau on the edge of the Grosses Moos.
Gurbrü lies on the A13; however there is not an on-ramp in the municipality. The Kerzers–Gümmenen railroad runs through Gurbrü; however, the nearest station is in Ferenbalm. With it is possible, via Bern Flamatt or Bern Bümplitz to get to Bern. Normally it is recommended to use the good railway connections in four directions from Kerzers.
