This viewpoint is located on the highest point of the Swiss Belchen on the border between Baselland and Solothurn and is best reached on foot. There are no public transport stations nearby. A car park is available 5 minutes on foot below the Chilchzimmersattel. From there it is a 15-minute hike to the Belchenfluh. Further information The famous "Belchenflue" viewpoint was used as an observation post in World War I and was blasted into its current form. The Belchensüdstrasse between Ifenthal and the Belchenflue commemorates the troops involved in the construction with numerous coats of arms, which immortalized themselves in the rock after the work was completed.
