Hike "Linner Linde"

Hiking trail
Time required: 2 hours 38 minutesLength: 9.37 km

Jurapark Aargau - After the ascent to the Linnerberg with its magnificent view of the Alps, the "Linner Linde" hike leads over the Buechmatt to the Schenkenberg Ruins, the largest ruins in Aargau. From there, the route continues along a vineyard slope to the wine village of Thalheim.

The ascent to the Linnerberg is just under 200 meters in elevation. At the highest point, you stand directly above the traffic tunnels of the highway through the Bözberg and enjoy a wonderful view of the Alps. Along the path, some old boundary stones appear that once separated the southern area of the lower jurisdiction of Kasteln and the northern area of the high bailiwick of Schenkenberg. At Buechmatt (669 m above sea level), there is an impressive view of the Jura heights. After a flat section, the path leads over a short, steep stretch to the Schenkenberg farms and then to the Schenkenberg Ruins, the largest ruins in Aargau. Around the castle hill or with a detour up to the old walls, the route leads along a vineyard downhill to the wine village of Thalheim. From there, a direct bus line quickly connects to Brugg.
