The Zytgloggetrum is one of two remaining city gates. Along with the old wooden bridge and the imposing Salt House, it is one of the town's landmarks.

A great starting point for the Aare River Trail. The train station is right next to the castle, and there's also free parking. For example, you can take the red train from here to Solothurn and hike back along the Aare River – a beautiful route!

This section is beautiful; a good gravel road makes for a leisurely and relaxing ride along the Aare River between Wangen and Solothurn. However, part of the route is closed until the end of 2027 due to the expansion of the A1 motorway. A partially signposted detour is in place.
