Regional Highlights - Discover the region

Solothurn, also called the most beautiful baroque city in Switzerland, is a charming little town on the Aare. If you want to find out more and why the number 11 is omnipresent, we recommend one of the many interesting guided tours. Of course, you can also explore the city on your own.

Grenchen is developing more and more into a bicycle town. The bicycle manufacturer BMC is stationed there. The Tissot-Velodrome, opened in 2013, is also well worth seeing. Watch a race, pedal yourself on a trial course or have all the details explained to you on a guided tour.

TheBettlachstock rises out of the first Jura chain like a giant mossy tree trunk. The impression of an island mountain is only reinforced by the steeply sloping "Wandfluh" to the north. Discover the beauty of nature.

Whether it's a guided airport tour, a sightseeing flight or even a parachute jump, the nearby Airport Grenchen offers everything aviation enthusiasts need to pass the time.

Enjoy a magnificent panorama of the Swiss Alps and the Swiss Plateau from the heights of the Jürasüdfuss. Whether summer or winter, there are numerous activities to do. TheWeissenstein is certainly worth a visit.

Walk/jog along the Aare and enjoy the peace and relaxation by the water. Combine this pleasure, for example, with a visit to theStork Village in Altreu (30 minutes on foot).

Bettlach is located directly on theSwiss-Mobil Mittelland Route 5 and Aare Route 8. The flat Mittelland is ideal for cycling excursions, whether short, leisurely rides between Solothurn and Biel or tours of several days through Switzerland.

The Aare, the second longest river in Switzerland, flows from Lake Biel, through Solothurn, to Aarau, where it finally flows into the Rhine at Koblenz. Explore the many highlights it flows past. For example with a boat trip from Solothurn to Biel.
