Birskopfsteg Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Beautiful running route along the Rhine incl. Birskopfsteg. Unfortunately, both sides of the Birschöpfli are very heavily polluted in summer ...

Birsfelden Lock

Highlight • Structure

The lock Birsfelden and the adjacent power plant island offer a nice detour for the round. If you catch a good moment, you can watch a ship sling.

View of Basel Minster from the Rheinweg

Highlight • Viewpoint

In the morning, this is a lovely view as part of a quiet run. If you like to take a more laid-back people-watching jog, it starts to fill with people by late morning, particularly in the summer.

Sunday morning along the Glaibasler Rhyboard is one of the best times to discover Basel.
In summer with many Rhine swimmers and maybe. another espresso in a buvette!👍
