Tips

Passwang makes us think of Jura pastures, the ringing of cowbells and meadows full of yellow gentian. The destination of our hike from the Neuhüsli bus station on the Passwangstrasse towards Ulmet into the Bogental is a body of water. A very special body of water that tells us about a use that was long ago.

Shortly before the Bogental farm we come across a pond. The Bogental pond was built around 1595 and was used to float wood until the beginning of the 19th century. By quickly emptying the pond, the wood could be floated with the flood wave via the Lüssel and Birs to Basel. Today the pond is an important spawning area for amphibians. Instead of cowbells, we can still hear the ringing of the "Glögglifrosches", the call of the rare midwife toad, which is reminiscent of a distant bell ringing.

The lake is in a small valley. It is speared by a stream that the children enjoy. At the lake there is a farm where you can buy various things.
