Solothurn: A Must-Visit Destination in Switzerland
Solothurn was our fourth stop in the road trip. We were hosted by a great Swiss family in an Airbnb suit( Sarah Meile and her husband, Thomas Meile and her lovely daughters, Ladina Meile and Annika Meile). They were so nice. They showed us their farm lands. They took us to their place where they had cows and gave us fresh milk. I have included her contact information incase somebody wants to visit this great place and needs a room to stay.
As soons as we reached to the village we were amazed by the beautiful nature, amazing houses and the weather. We spent two nights there which I think was enough to explore and enjoy this city. Our place was in a small village which was about 45 minutes drive far from the city center which we discovered it on the first day.
The historical part of the city center is so amazing and you can see a lot of old buildings, a historical cathedral (Solothurn Cathedral) and can relax in a peaceful and quiet place. There are a lot of sights around the city which you can go and have a peaceful moment. We selected a lake which was beside a forest. We walked in the forest a little bit, had our lunch beside the lake and then drove back home.
On the second day we took a small trip to Zurich which I will create the video in the future and share it with you.
Please share your experience with me if you have traveled to this beautiful city or you are leaving there. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You can find useful links about Solothurn below:

Olten, Switzerland 4K - A beautiful historic Swiss Town
The small town of Olten lies between Solothurn and Aarau at the southern foot of the Jura on the river Aare. Thanks to its central location in the Swiss Mittelland, the town is a popular venue for conventions and meetings. The unspoiled nature of the nearby Jura heights however also makes the area an attractive leisure region.
When undertaking a tour through the old town, a visit to Olten’s museums, the nature museum, art museum, historical museum and home of the cantonal archaeological museum and «Wertpapierwelt», the historical museum of shares and bonds, is well worthwhile. Those with a yearning for the exotic will find Switzerland’s largest Thai temple in nearby Gretzenbach. Finally, on travelling around Olten, visitors will encounter a multitude of interesting fortresses, ruins, castles, churches and chapels.

DAY TRIP TO SOLOTHURN SWITZERLAND - Jura Mountains, Oberbalmberg-Röti Walk & Solothurn Old Town
Recently we went on a day trip to Solothurn canton. We did a circular walk in the Jura Mountains (from Oberbalmberg to Röti) and looked around the Solothurn old town at the golden hour. As you can see, it was all very beautiful and we even discovered an epic cliff that is very similar to our Creux du Van here in Neuchatel. We will definitely be coming back to explore more of this area!
Oberbalmberg - Röti circular hike (Only do this walk when there is no snow! We made a mistake doing this hike so early in the year and parts of the trail were very very sketchy...)

Magical Switzerland Winter Hike from Solothurn to Basel Landschaft
Last weekend we went for a 18 kilometer hiking trip in Switzerland from Schönenwerd (Aarau) to Tecknau as the weather was cold and cloudy. Close the peak of Geissflue (963m), the snow, fog and sun resulted in a pretty mystical scenery. The hiking trip is very suitable for beginners as it has only 600 altimeters and the roads are not that technical. Video shows some of the drone footage shot with a DJI Mavic Mini during the hiking tour in Basel-Landschaft.

Aarburg is a historic town and a municipality in the district of Zofingen in the canton of Aargau in Switzerland.
The small town lies in the southwest Aargau, in a narrow section of the Aare valley, at the confluence with the Wigger. It lies in the intersection of the most important traffic routes of Switzerland. The dominant landmark is the Aarburg Castle, one of Switzerland's largest castles and a heritage site of national significance. The visual character of Aarburg is shaped by the fortification and the church on a rock spur.
The official language of Aarburg is (the Swiss variety of Standard) German, but the main spoken language is the local variant of the Alemannic Swiss German dialect.
In Roman times a road went by Aarburg, connecting the Olten region with the rest of inner Switzerland. During the construction of a factory in the 20th century, a hoard of coins produced during the reign of Emperor Tetricus I was discovered. The coin hoard was probably buried during the Bagauden Invasions in 284 CE.
When, precisely, the fortress of Aarburg was constructed on the rocky outcropping is unknown. The first time it was documented was in 1123 when it is mentioned as Areburc.[3] At the time it was the property of the Grafen von Frohburg family. From this castle the Bailiwick of Aarburg was governed, what is today the western part of the county of Zofingen, though not the town of Zofingen itself. In 1299 the Frohburgs sold the castle and the Bailiwick of Aarburg to the Habsburg family. The settlement at the foot of the castle was clearly identified as a town in the year 1330. Archeological evidence has shown that the town was probably founded around the year 1312.
Wedged between the cities of Olten and Zofingen, with only four kilometers between them, Aarburg could not develop commercially and remained a small town. The people of Aarburg lived mainly on the tariff revenues that commerce along the Gotthard Pass provided. A small harbor on the river Aare was constructed in 1361. The resulting river boat traffic was of great economic importance until the 16th and 17th centuries.
After a short siege the town was captured by Bern on 14 April 1415. In 1416, the castle became the residence of the bailiff of the Bailiwick of Aarburg. Under control of Bern, the castle was expanded into a fortress in the 16th and 17th centuries, in order to protect the alliance between the Reformed cities of Bern and Zurich from attack by their Catholic neighbors.
On 4 May 1798 the town and fortress were captured by France without a struggle. The district of Aarburg was dissolved and the regional administrative functions of the French imposed Helvetic Republic were moved to Zofingen. The newly established Canton of Aargau took over the fortress in 1804, initially using it as a jail and prison. Since 1893 the castle has housed a canton-run school.
A huge fire destroyed much of the premises and the church on 4 May 1840, leaving 68 families homeless. The village was rebuilt, though without the main fortifications. On the rock spur, near the castle, a church was raised up between 1842 and 1845 in the new gothic style.
The first textile factory was opened in 1824. The railway station was opened in on 9 July 1856 along the Aarau – Olten – Zofingen – Emmenbrücke line; on 16 March 1857, the Herzogenbuchsee line was opened, later extended to Bern. Aarburg thereby became a privileged industrial town. In the second half of the 20th century the township's population doubled due to the construction of the autobahn nearby.
