Hiking

The Hexenplatz (Witches' Square) above Brugg offers fantastic views over the city and the Aare Valley. With a fire pit, shelter, and plenty of space, it's a popular place to linger—whether hiking, biking, or simply enjoying nature. It's especially beautiful at sunset!

Hiking

This old stone road is almost 2000 years old, the old Roman road. The locals are very proud of this short and preserved historical treasure. The road is really very steep and slippery when wet. A narrow asphalt path for pedestrians has been made next to the Roman road.

Hiking

The old Roman road leads steeply up to the Hexenplatz. This is a lookout point with a fireplace and offers a beautiful view of Brugg.
