    Tips

    November 9, 2024

    The former Finsterwald drilling platform was built in 1979. The drilling tower was dismantled in January 1981 due to technical problems. The platform was not dismantled and a recreational area was created instead. This was presented to the public as a gift by the owner (the Entlebuch Cooperation) on September 21, 1996.

    It is now a diverse rest area with a triple grill and several tables and benches.

    It has a play tower with climbing ropes and a long slide, a soccer field and a sandpit.

    It also has a small kiosk with cold drinks, a coffee machine and snacks. You can pay there in cash or with Twint.

    There is also a building with covered seating. This can be rented for events between March and November.

    Toilets are available.

    There is a large free parking lot.

    The site is a great starting point for walking and hiking trails in both summer and winter.
