The Hauenstein Fortifications in the Baselbieter and Solothurn Jura formed the eastern northern barrier in Switzerland's defense during World War I. The chain of fortifications and defensive works is over 42 kilometers long and forms a protective semicircle around the railway town of Olten. It is embedded in a stunningly beautiful natural and hiking area.

A challenging pass in the Tafeljura, the climb is made up of a small road with a maximum gradient of 15% and little traffic. The scenery is very scenic, with magnificent panoramas along the way.

A very nice route for cyclists and walkers. Ride carefully, as the path is not always clear.
