Naturpark Thal - The perfect Sunday walk – take the NaturparkBus from Balsthal up to the Brunnersberg (1118 m. a. s. l.) From there, you have a gentle hike to the Obere Tannmatt (1122 m. a. s. l.) and take the bus from there back down the valley.
Relish the heavenly views from the second Jura mountain chain, without needing to negotiate the ascent on foot – it’s only possible with the NaturparkBus. The bus makes two journeys onto the second Jura mountain chain each Sunday and all public holidays from 1 May to 1 November.
Take the NaturparkBus from Balsthal to the Brunnersberg bus stop and hike over the Gross Brunnersberg in the direction of Obere Tannmatt, where the NaturparkBus drives in the direction of Herbetswil/Balsthal.
Why not combine your Sunday excursion with a visit to the Bergwirtschaft Güggel or Bergrestaurant Obere Tannmatt mountain inns.
You can reach the Naturpark Thal from the town centres in around 60 minutes using public transport. This service is supported by the Thal Raiffeisenbanken and the PostAuto transport partner.
