Probierloch

Remnant of a sounding boring
Here there is a peculiarly rectangular water surface, which is covered in the summer of the half of the Kleine Wasserlinse sit and for example, frogs, newts and LIebellen habitat offers. The small pond dates back to 1874 when a Langenthal-St. Urabn - Altbüron - Ebersecken - Schötz - Wauwil should arise. It is called a trial hole and was created during the clarification of the geological conditions of a sounding excavation.
Construction began in 1874. At times, up to 800 workers were involved. Above all, the tunneling in Altbüron LU, which is located six kilometers southwest of here. 1875 is characterized by a financial crisis, which set the railroads particularly bad. Later efforts to resume the work failed.
But today we have an intact forest, for those in need of the outdoors, like me and you.

Short but beautiful single trail with a few spices as obstacles.
