Stop and read up on the Hydro power plant

Very beautiful area and nature reserve.

The most impressive plants in Wildenstein are undoubtedly the ancient oaks (over 500 years old). Just imagine what these trees have seen in their long lives!

The platform is part of the Natural Energy Trail. Information about it can be found here: https://www.rheinfelden.de/tools/rheinufer/media/pdf/Naturenergie_Weg-Tafel2.pdf

The oak grove of Wildenstein near Bubendorf is one of the few preserved medieval cultural landscapes of this kind. The area is also considered an important nature reserve. A visit to the oak trees, some of which are over 500 years old, is a highlight for all nature and tree enthusiasts. A visit to the old oak trees is also worthwhile in winter. Without leaves, the trees look better and you can also move around freely. Between March and September, you have to stick to the path out of respect for the valuable lean grassland under the oak trees. People like to linger in the oak grove. In addition to the oak grove, the fairly large nature reserve also offers other attractions. Between the oak grove and the castle there is a large pond, a regionally important spawning ground for the common toad. The area around Wildenstein Castle is also diverse; a circular path leads around the foot of the castle.

There is something mystical about the oak forest. Especially in changeable weather, when light and shadow bathe the mighty oaks in a diffuse light and their gnarled, long-fingered branches seem to reach out to you. So that future generations can also benefit from this magical place, it is very important not to leave the marked path. The temptation to do so is great. For a photo, for example. Warning signs point out, however, that this is not only forbidden, but also causes long-term damage to the flora and fauna around the oaks. There are also nature park rangers who monitor compliance with the ban.

Unique landscape protected. Here you can see 500-year-old oak trees and a correspondingly large variety of birds.

A place that is particularly worthy of protection and is worth hiking through with open eyes and ears.
