Olten

Olten is a railroad town between Bern, Zurich and Basel. The river Aare flows through the small town and shapes the townscape. The 1.5 hectare wildlife park Mühletäli shows among others sika and fallow deer. The Säli-Schlössli or the Ferris wheel offer magnificent views of the city. Art museum, Latinobar or arthouse cinema provide special moments. On the weekend before the summer vacations, Olten has been celebrating the school festival since 1816, including a parade on Sunday.

“For me, it was a very good guided tour, even though, as a long-time resident of Einsiedeln (Matura 1964), I already knew quite a lot. On today's visit, I brought along a young man from the neighbourhood who had never been to Einsiedeln before. It was an interesting experience for both of us.”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My first-ever paragliding experience in Interlaken, Switzerland, and it was absolutely amazing! 🇨🇭🪂 The views were breathtaking, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. A huge thank you to my awesome pilot, Tinu, for making me feel safe and comfortable the entire time. He was friendly, professional, and made the whole experience so much fun! And of course, my “George Clooney look-alike” pilot 😂 Definitely one of the highlights of my Switzerland trip. I would 100% do it again! Danke schön, Tinu! ❤️”
