ランゲンタールの天然記念物・トップ20

This boulder is called Grossi Flue. It weighs a whopping 3,500 tons and has a volume of 1,200 cubic meters. The boulder was brought here by the Rhone Glacier – this is evident from the hornblende gneiss. The enormous boulder was purchased by the Swiss Society of Natural Sciences in 1869 and placed under protection. Otherwise, it would likely have fallen victim to railway construction.

Extensive nature reserve in deep forest.

The large boulder in the Steinhof is very impressive.

From the viewing platform on the Roggenfluh, the view of the Mittelland and the Alps is simply brilliant, the two large panoramic maps explain all the mountains from the Glaner Alps to Mont Blanc.

The forest was drained for many years by a dense ditch system. In order to win back the area for the site-typical alternating damp to wet forest communities and the rare animal and plant species that depend on them, the old ditches were closed and new dams were built. The result is a rewetted area in which toads and dragonflies feel very much at home. The beaver has also found ideal conditions here and is happily building dams and cave systems. He fells even the biggest trees. The area is worth visiting at any time of the year.

The Roggenflue is a wonderful panoramic mountain in the Solothurn Jura and the hike from Balsthal is really beautiful.

Beautiful. Almost like in the Everglades 😄. Lots of animals to watch: dragonflies, mice, frogs, birds, etc.

The Burgäschisee, sometimes also simply Aeschisee, lies on the canton border of the cantons of Bern and Solothurn, with around two thirds on the Solothurn canton area. The lake is located in the municipalities of Aeschi (SO) and Seeberg (BE) at an altitude of 465 meters above sea level. The lake is fed by the Füürstein Canal, while the Seebach flows out. The natural lake is almost 700m long and 500m wide and is surrounded by a forest and reeds. The lake is located in a nature reserve.
