Description
City and nature
One thing is certain: the climb to the Chänzelis may be a little steep in places, but it's really worth it! The views that open up high above the city are unique and extend far into the region. The tour passes a total of four viewpoints. Along the way, you will encounter a diverse selection of the local flora and fauna. And every now and then you will come across a cozy fireplace where you can have a really good picnic.
History of the Chänzeli tour
The most mineral-rich thermal water in Switzerland has been bubbling up in Baden for 2000 years. Bathing cures were established in the 16th century, and during the Belle Epoque at the end of the 19th century, so-called "terrain cures" were part of the therapeutic offer. The aim of "therapeutic hiking" was to strengthen the heart, circulation and muscles. The "Chänzelis" on the hills of the Klus were popular excursion destinations even back then.
