ツヴィンゲンの湖・トップ4

always good for a good cool Schlagg

The Baslerweier is an artificial lake that served as a drinking water supply for Basel for 70 years from 1870. Today it belongs to the canton of Solothurn and is a nature reserve. A true idyll!

The Baslerweiher (also Basler Weiher or Baslerweier) is a small lake in the municipality of Seewen in the Swiss canton of Solothurn. It is located in the Jura, has an average water level of 560 m above sea level and an area of approx. 1.7 ha. https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baslerweiher

The Ermitage is a large and lovingly designed green area from 1785, with three idyllic ponds, several romantic grottos, historical buildings, pretty walking paths between the shore and the edge of the forest and, on top of it all, the castle ruins of Bierseck Castle, as the crowning glory of the whole. It is a wonderful place for physical and mental relaxation, but those seeking peace and quiet should visit outside of the holidays or weekends. It is a real visitor magnet. Warning! The grottos can only be reached on foot and via steep stairs. The rest of the garden is mostly wheelchair accessible and suitable for pushchairs. There are no parking spaces directly at the Ermitage! Free entry!

Very nice place with benches for a short stop!

In fact, it is not a small lake but a deliberately created pond. The Basel pond was built in 1870. It was intended as a large water reservoir, so to speak as a reserve for the Grellinger water pipe to Basel and was not dug up but simply dammed.

Also beautiful. Not exactly wonderful, but worth seeing.
