Basel Region Walk #1


Here's the little walk that we managed today on a beautiful, if slightly chilly, day here in Switzerland. After the weather this week it was no surprise to find a little snow on the walk up to Sissacher Fluh. At the top we were rewarded with a great view over the hills to the Engelberg Alps, all covered in relatively fresh snow. At the other end of the walk (entitled, "Vantage Point to Vantage Point") was the Aussichturm, which we didn't climb this time as we had already walked for four hours. It is only a 50 minute walk from Kaiseraugst so we'll be back, I'm sure. So we've now completed the first of the "Basel Region" Walks that are listed on the wonderful Swiss Tourist website, www.myswitzerland.com . It was enjoyable and we're also looking forward to the higher walks in the Jura soon.
