Inleiding
Via de Vogelberg en de derde Juraketen bereik je de Hohe Winde, het hoogste punt van de wandeling. Hier valt te genieten van de imposante vergezichten in de richting van Natuurpark Thal, de Alpen, de Vogezen en het Zwarte Woud, waarna het pad weer naar beneden slingert naar het knusse klooster Beinwil.
Beschrijving
The pleasant hike to Beinwil begins at the gondola station in Wasserfallen. After just a few steps, even before you pass the mountain restaurant, you enter the Thal Nature Park, nestled in the rolling hills of the Jura between Weissenstein and Wasserfallen. While the region has a low population density, it offers extensive nature recreation areas. In the Middle Ages, the entrances to the ravines were protected. The castles and fortresses are proof of it. Raw materials, such as iron ore, wood and water were used to build up various industrial branches.
On a beautiful path you climb the first 300 altitude meters up to the viewpoint at Vogelberg Mountain. When the weather is clear, the Alps and the Napf area in front of them appear close enough to touch. It takes a little over 1.5 hours to get to Passwang. In the 18th century, the historic pass (1204 m) between Balsthal and Reigoldswil in the Schwarzbubenland was ill-suited for horse-drawn wagons because of its sharp incline.
The walk continues to Chratteneggli via gently rising forest roads and paths, followed by a steady ascent past Restaurant Erzberg to Hohe Winde Mountain. This viewpoint is at the same altitude as Vogelberg and offers great views of Basel and Germany. It takes just under four hours to get here. Now you continue downhill, first along a path and later on a forest road heading for the destination. Beinwil in the Canton Solothurn is located on the Passwang road. To this day, the farming community is still mainly engaged in agriculture, milk production and particularly in the cultivation of fruit crops, primarily cherries.
De sleutel voor een prettige wandeltocht is onder andere een zorgvuldige planning. Win op voorhand inlichtingen in bij de plaatselijke informatiedienst over de toestand van het traject en de weersomstandigheden. Afhankelijk van het seizoen en de weersomstandigheden kan de route gesloten of onderbroken zijn.
