Quite a nice path along the Bünz, also suitable for hiking - probably a bit more pleasant than by bike 😉

The sculptures are located along the "Freiämter Sagenweg" in the forest of Waltenschwil. It is partly almost mystical around all the different figures, which allow for fairytale-like and boundless fantasies ;). Since the sculptures are in the forest and thus provide shade, a trip during the summer holidays is an experience for young and old. Barbecue and seating areas are available in the vicinity.

A historic castle mill from the 14th century is located right next to the "Hallwyl" castle. The mill is now a museum where guided tours are also held. There are plenty of parking spaces in the immediate vicinity (castle parking lot).

Very beautiful pond, nestled in a forest landscape, it lies between Wohlen and Bremgarten in the canton of Aargau. It is located in the nature reserve and swimming is not allowed. Recently, the large bench was renovated, which invites you to linger to simply enjoy nature and the peace and quiet.

The bridge was built in two parts, one for motor vehicles, and the narrower one for pedestrians and hikers. It is very generously built, so that three bicycles can meet at the same level at the same time. From the bridge, a wonderful view of the Aare river and the renaturalized riverbank area.

Aareuferweg always nice to ride. Sometimes it's narrow trails, but much more often wide gravel paths where you can easily pass each other without having to dismount.

Large pond in the middle of the forest. Many ducks and geese frolic on the water. Many small and large fish are also swimming in the water.
