Madlenchöpfli Trail and Viewpoint

Highlight • Trail

Good, sturdy footwear, as it is sometimes very narrow and has a few "crawling" spots. There are fire pits and a beautiful view on the Madlenchöpfli.

Madeln Ruins

Highlight • Historical Site

There is no longer any masonry of the ruin; it was destroyed in the Basel earthquake in 1356.
However, the two castle walls and the palas hill are very well preserved.
