A very nice easy hike. Hiking poles are an advantage. Sure-footedness is essential. There are very beautiful viewpoints and fantastic views of the Alps. Especially at the height of the Wasserflue, the view of the Alps is a dream. There is also a very large bench where you can take a break at the same time.
There are a few barbecue areas along the way where you can relax and grill something.

The Salhöhe is a pass in the Swiss Jura at an altitude of 787 m above sea level. M. and a maximum gradient of 10.5%. It connects the towns of Kienberg and Erlinsbach. The Salhöhe forms the cantonal border between the cantons of Aargau and Solothurn.

At the starting point there is the well-known Saalhöhe Restaurant where you can go for something to eat or drink.

I found the following highlights of the hike:
- Always great viewpoints of the Alps
- If you go early in the morning you can enjoy nature even more and take it easy.

Important: This hike starts directly from the public parking lot. (Toll-free)

FYI: Moderately difficult hike
Difficulty level: T1 (hiking)

Free, very large car park at Salhöhe (or Saalhöhe). You can also arrive by bus. Restaurant on site with a fun-decorated garden. Particular caution is required on public holidays due to (speeding) motorbike riders (including in the car park).
