Scenic view of the Aargau countryside

Highlight • Viewpoint

You may not be able to see the trees for the forest, but you certainly can't see the panorama.

A cave below the Cheisacherturm

Highlight • Cave

You are on the Perimukweg in Gansingen. Perimuk is a Jura dinosaur from the children's book who takes you and your family and friends on his adventures in the Jura Park Aargau.
One of Traugott Edin's wooden figures decorates this small cave.

Cheisacherturm Lookout Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

The tower blends harmoniously into the landscape and from the top you can see the Alps and their snow-capped peaks. It also has plenty of places to linger and have a picnic.

Cheisacher Observatory

Highlight • Monument

The Cheisacher is a ridge in Aargauer Tafeljura. It rises above the height of the Ampferen, the transition between Mönthal and Sulz. The "Sternwarte Cheisacher Observatory" has been operating its astronomical observation station here since 1966. It is located at an altitude of about 670 meters above sea level in the village of Sulz. Just outside the light-filled settlements and slightly above the worst haze layers, there are good conditions for undisturbed view of the sky.

Bürersteig Pass summit

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Bürersteig Pass is located in the Jura Park Aargau. The Fricktaler Höhenweg runs over the 550 meter high pass and the hike to the Cheisacherturm is also signposted here.

The pass is served by the B142 bus service from Gansingen and Remigen, the two villages north and south of the hill. Mönthal, which is also located at the foot of the Bürersteig and is often chosen as the destination for a hike to the Cheisacherturm, also has a bus service to the next largest towns in Aargau.
