View of Rotberg Castle

Highlight • Castle

Rotberg Castle was built by the Bishops of Basel in the first half of the 13th century. In 1935, the already badly dilapidated castle was rebuilt and has since housed a youth hostel with a unique character.

Forest kiosk

Highlight • Mountain Hut

What a lovely idea! Almost out of nowhere you come to a forest hut, where there is a large cool box with chilled drinks, sweets and sausages from Ruth Stich's farm for self-service.

View of Basel from Blauen Ridge

Highlight • Viewpoint

In summer the foliage along the Blauenkamm is quite dense and the trail does not always run along the edge to allow a view. At this point, however, there is a great view.
