Beautiful viewpoint overlooking Laufenburg and the Rhine. After the climb, a short break is worthwhile to enjoy the view of the old town and the river valley. In clear weather, the view extends far beyond the surroundings.

Between Sisseln and Laufenburg, you can walk the Via Rhenana (Rhine Route, Path No. 60) in 2 ways. While the riverside path runs directly at river level, the embankment path is an option at higher water levels. It is also significantly narrower and always leads along in a gentle up and down in the middle section of the embankment. The embankment path also impresses with its diverse vegetation (old trees, ferns (e.g. hart's-tongue fern), spring flowers (e.g. fumeworts, anemones)).

Laufenburg is a small but beautifully preserved town right on the Rhine. There isn't a huge amount to see, but what there is is lovely.
