벨라크‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

A beautiful hike and not too strenuous. While it's still pleasant here in the gorge in summer, it's worth going a little off-season, when it's much quieter.

Storks have settled and built nests on a number of houses in Altreu. Stork chicks can also be observed here in mid- to late June.

The Chöpfli is always worth a hike. With a bench and two fire pits, you can look forward to a relaxed summit situation. You will also find a summit book in which we have been immortalized many times. So sign it and be amazed at who all comes to this special Jura summit.

The last part to the summit is a bit steeper... but the wonderful view from above makes it worthwhile

Wild, narrow and green, the Wolfsschlucht in the Thal Nature Park in the Solothurn Jura is an adventure for the whole family. Rock walls up to 100 meters high, some of them overhanging, line the gorge. Even in summer it is pleasantly cool and shady. The path leads past caves and washouts. There are several fire pits where you can fortify yourself with a picnic. The entrance is directly at the Herbetswil Wolfsschlucht bus stop. Parking is available in the village center of Herbetswil.

A worthwhile excursion destination that, when the weather is clear, offers a unique view from Säntis to Mont Blanc. As is well known, many roads lead "to Rome". You can get up and, if you want, "over" the mountain by car, bike or cable car. The "Weissenstein" hotel and spa is the gastronomic flagship of the Weissenstein and is praised not only for its huge viewing terrace, but also for the quality of the food on offer. Numerous flat paths and paths that are also suitable for strollers and wheelchairs run across the Weissenstein. Those who like to put a sausage in the fire will be tempted by well-furnished barbecue areas.

The idyllic Verena Gorge is located just outside the city of Solothurn. It can be reached on foot from Solothurn in about 20 minutes, but you can also take the bus to the entrance of the gorge (line 4, stop St. Niklaus). The well-developed, easy-to-walk path then leads through the wild and romantic gorge to a hermitage and two chapels. Three restaurants in the vicinity invite you to stop for a bite to eat. The hike, which is actually more of a stroll, is two kilometers long, and the elevation gain is moderate at 40 meters.

The hermitage of St. Verena is, together with the hermitage in Arlesheim, one of the most important landscape gardens in Switzerland. In contrast to Arlesheim, Solothurn can boast an original hermitage. In the north, the gorge opens up to a clearing with two baroque chapels and the hermit's cloister. Saint Verena is said to have lived and worked in the cave behind the Martin Chapel. The Verena Chapel is dedicated to her. The hermitage, inhabited by a forest brother/hermit or a hermitess for many hundreds of years, has been located near the northern exit of the Verena Gorge. The cloister and garden, the Verena and Martin Chapels, the Magdalene and Mount of Olives grottos are under cantonal monument protection on Rütten soil and belong to the Solothurn community.
