BASLERWEG:
Jakobsweg from Oberdorf via Solothurn to Biberist
10th October 2019
Starting at a superb church in Oberdorf, going through the baroque town of Solothurn,
making a loop along the Aare and then the Emme to finally arrive in Biberist.
Returning to Oberdorf where we left off in the summer, we continued with the Baslerweg
from Oberdorf through Solothurn to Biberist. From Oberdorf we went along a ridge looking
over the plains to the alps, and looking down on Solothurn, to the top entrance to the Verena gorge,
with its hermitage, chapels and grottos. After admiring the chapels and absorbing the peacefulness of
the place, we followed the tranquil stream down to Solothurn, advertised as the most beautiful baroque town in Switzerland.
There we sampled the local delicacy, and then followed the Aare and then the Emme to Biberist.
