The Itelemühle has historical value. It was founded in the 14th century. It still looks beautiful today.

In the winter months, the waterfall - after all, the highest in the canton of Aargau - usually has little water. But the stalactites on the rock walls that form in freezing temperatures are impressive. Further information: https://www.teddy-b.ch/urlaubszielen/linner-wasserfall-ag-mister-gernegross/

Is probably the highest waterfall in Gränichen. Next to the fountain under the Susten forest house. This appears to be an overflow from an overflow reservoir.

The Linner waterfall is particularly beautiful in the depths of winter, when stalactites and stalagnites ennoble the "little big one". Definitely combine with a hike on the Linnerberg, both can be done perfectly in 1 day.
