The climb with gradients >13% in the upper part is little used, very well paved and rewards you with a great view at the top!

Imposing large church in the heart of the old town of Zofingen. The old town itself is also worth a detour, even if it is mostly on soft cobblestones, which of course messes up the Ø :-). The Stadtkirche Zofingen is a Reformed church building in Zofingen in the Swiss canton of Aargau. The three-aisled basilica in the Romanesque-Gothic style is considered the symbol of the city. Today's church building goes back to the founding of a canon's monastery by the Frohburgers at the end of the 11th century, which was dedicated to Saint Mauritius. Previous buildings can be traced back to the early 7th century. In the course of the Reformation in 1528, the monastery was dissolved. Today the town church is owned by the Evangelical-Reformed parish of Zofingen, which is part of the Reformed State Church of Aargau.
