ベックテンのおすすめツーリングルート

Viewpoint with bus stop and bench. Many hiking and biking trails start from here.

Nice bridge, but be careful when turning left or right into bicycle lane.

The small village of Kilchberg, located in the lovely Eital valley, has fewer than 200 inhabitants. It boasts a picturesque townscape with old houses and farmsteads, flower-filled fountains, and the dominant neo-Gothic Church of St. Martin. The church was first documented in 1276. Today, however, only the tower, built in 1619, remains; the rest of the church building was demolished and rebuilt in 1867/68.

The view is dominated on the right by the Farnsberg hill, with the bright, light-colored ruins of Farnsburg Castle perched on its upper slope, visible from afar. A visit to the ruins is highly recommended. From up here, the view sweeps down to the village of Hemmiken and further into the Jura Mountains.

Peaceful town square with a water feature, overlooked by the church tower.

Liestal has a charming town centre. It's worth taking a break.

Great bike path - away from the rest of the traffic.

Impressive wooden construction. From the bridge you can also easily observe birds in and around the water.
