The drilling platform is evidence of gas extraction in the Entlebuch region. Between 1985 and 1994, natural gas was extracted near Finsterwald, something which is unique in Switzerland. Nowadays, there is a lovely picnic site near the platform, with a big barbecue and a playground. Information boards explain the history of gas extraction in the Entlebuch region - this is part of the Entlebuch Energy Trail.
