グレッリンゲンとドゥーギネン間の新しく舗装された自転車道

「見なさい、救い主の心――その征服されざる愛の、理解できるしるしであり、真の平和の尽きることのない源です。そのうちに「神の満ち満ちた性質が、すべて、からだとなって宿って」います（コロサイ2:9）。キリストが地上にもたらされた平和は、まさにこの満ち満ちた性質と愛から来るのです。それは、愛する神の賜物であり、神は御ひとり子の心において人間を愛されました。「この方こそ、わたしたちの平和」であると聖パウロは叫びます（フィリピ2:14参照）。そうです、イエスこそ平和であり、わたしたちの和解なのです。（…）今日、その最も聖なる御心を崇めるにあたり、わたしたちは平和のために熱心に祈ります。まず、わたしたち自身の心の平和のために、そしてまた、わたしたちの家族、わたしたちの国、そして全世界の平和のために。イエスのみ心、わたしたちの平和、わたしたちの和解、わたしたちを憐れんでください！」 （教皇ヨハネ・パウロ二世 1999年6月7日トルンでの演説）

The night of the summer solstice in 1984 was dramatic and ominous. Flames shot into the sky above Angenstein Castle, sparks flew through the thick clouds of smoke, and the old castle chapel crackled in the heat. Two precious bells, which had rung out across the valley for centuries, suddenly fell silent. When the smoke cleared, they had vanished. The residents were baffled. No one knew whether thieves had taken advantage of the confusion or whether an ancient curse had completed the work of destruction.

Unlike the Blochmont, which crosses the same ridge just a little further on, this road from Wolschwiller is considerably more challenging. After a gentle start, the route climbs relatively steeply through the narrow valley. A stream flows to the right, while beautiful rock formations are often visible to the left. At the top, near the unmistakable 'Lange Matte' (Long Meadow), the terrain levels out again, and soon you're at the top.

I can only agree with Mattia: it's a short stretch of road through fields, but otherwise completely unspectacular, not even worth a tip...

Biederthal is often reached by car from Basel / the Birstal valley, but this point here is nothing special in itself.

There are better places to admire the Birs: It's always quite busy and there's heavy traffic here. Therefore, I recommend: Take a look as you drive by and move on.

With the construction of the new railway line between Aesch and Grellingen, the cycle path was also renovated. It is now completely paved. In Grellingen, near the former paper mill, the path connects to the railway line in such a way that crossing the tracks is no longer necessary. A great connection and very safe, much better than the parallel Grellingerstrasse road above.
