This varied circular route runs flat on pleasant bike paths and is therefore ideal for families. Along the way, there are always beautiful spots to linger.

On this route, we literally travel from one highlight to another. At the Hasenburg swimming pool, we follow the planet path for a while before turning right toward Brestenegg. We can refresh ourselves at the 1717 farm shop before passing the Wyher water castle and heading to the Buchwald nature study area. A detour on foot is worthwhile here to calmly admire the plants and animals.

We continue through Ettiswil and arrive on narrow roads in the Wauwilermoos. After a detour to the observation tower, we continue our ride following the Wigger stream. At Alberswil, we turn right and ride to the Agrovision organic farm. This is a good place to stop and linger, as besides the organic farm, farm shop, and playground, the Swiss Agricultural Museum with its striking new building and beautiful natural garden also awaits us. On the way back, we rejoin the planet path and are soon back at the starting point.

Author´s Tip / Recommendation of the author

At Agrovision, a detour to the Kastelen castle ruins is also worthwhile, if only for the beautiful view.

There are three fire pits along the way, which are marked on the map.
