A beautiful half-day hike leads us along the Wyna from Menziken to Beromünster with the well-known monastery, which impresses with its ecclesiastical splendor.

The start of this hike is the terminus of the AAR in Menziken, from where we walk through the village to the bathing area. There we meet the Wyna and then follow it all the way to Beromünster. The Wyna was greatly widened in the 1990s so that debris can deposit during flooding, as in 1994, when it was still canalized, it flooded the villages downstream. We go under the bridge of the former "Möischterlinie" of the SBB, which is now a bike path. The hamlet of Wynon is already part of Beromünster, which includes numerous other districts. The path continues through a forest and along the riverbank, always on traffic-free paths. Soon we reach Beromünster, where we can already see the tower of the monastery from afar. Through the medieval village, we soon reach it. A look inside is worthwhile.
