Balmfluechöpfli Summit

Highlight • Summit

The Balmfluhchöpfli can not be reached by car (luckily), so you do not walk around on your feet. The view is unique and impressive not only at the morning hour. In addition to the fireplace, you can also immortalize yourself in the summit book.

August 2019, after 1 1/2 years of construction and conversion, the Hotel Weissenstein reopened. At the historic old hotel a striking new building has been added. Now you can treat yourself to culinary delights on the local mountain of the Solothurner. All unsportsmanlike reach the Weissenstein of Oberdorf comfortably by cable car. The most impressive thing is and still is the view of the Mittelland and the Alps, or in the fall over the sea of fog.

Weissenstein

Highlight • Viewpoint

A worthwhile excursion destination that, when the weather is clear, offers a unique view from Säntis to Mont Blanc. As is well known, many roads lead "to Rome". You can get up and, if you want, "over" the mountain by car, bike or cable car. The "Weissenstein" hotel and spa is the gastronomic flagship of the Weissenstein and is praised not only for its huge viewing terrace, but also for the quality of the food on offer. Numerous flat paths and paths that are also suitable for strollers and wheelchairs run across the Weissenstein. Those who like to put a sausage in the fire will be tempted by well-furnished barbecue areas.

Weissenstein Cable Car

Highlight • Structure

Cable car, which brought us down to Oberdorf. From there we took the train to Solothurn, where we will spend the night today.
By the way: the train from Oberdorf to Solothurn and on to Olten leaves every 8 minutes. Faster than the subway in Berlin on Sunday!

Having returned to the Weissenstein after several years, we initially planned a longer route that would take us from the parking lot east to Balm Castle and then back over the mountain ridge to the Weissenstein.

Two athletic youngsters in the team paid little attention to our tour planning and eagerly forged ahead, while we older ones were left with …

Very steep ascent - a certain level of basic fitness should be available, otherwise it is advisable to take the cable car. Wonderful view from the Röti
