All hikes in Basel Land

You will reach the culminating point of this hike, the Hohe Winde, via the Vogelberg and the third Jura chain. It reveals stunning views towards Thal Nature Park, the Alps, Vosges Mountains and Black Forest, until the trail winds its way back into the valley to the charming Beinwil Abbey.

A romantic walk on a plateau bordered by cherry trees in the Basel region, taking the walker back to the Middle Ages with a visit to the castle of Schloss Wildenstein. The last third of the walk overlaps with the path of the Erlebnisweg Titterten and the Rifensteiner Sagenweg.

The route leads through the Baselbiet Tafeljura along the historic Hauenstein section. The Ergolztal and Homburgertal valleys are home to impressive castles and massive fortress ruins as well as Switzerland's oldest railway bridges.

“Mountains and valleys are side by side, with steep cliff faces watching over views so wide”, as the local folk song goes. This high-altitude hike from Langenbruck to Passwang brings the lyrics of this song to life.
