Hiking

The Glögglifels is a striking rock formation above Zwingen in the Laufental valley. It offers a beautiful view over the Birstal valley and is a popular viewpoint for short hikes. Legends and the name itself lend the place a mystical character.

Hiking

The Glögglifels is a striking rock formation above Laufen (BL) in the Jura Mountains. It lies on the hiking trail towards the Blauenpass and offers a beautiful view into the Birs Valley. The name likely derives from its bell-like shape or a former bell-ringing site.
