November 19, 2025, Water Wheel in Oberdorf

The waterwheel in Oberdorf is a small but charming destination, perfect for a leisurely hike or bike ride in the Solothurn Jura. The lovingly restored wheel is a reminder of the region's former use of hydropower and vividly illustrates how technology and nature have interacted here for centuries.

From the ruins, there are two possible routes to the Balmberg. 1. The old Balmberg road, a fairly steep dirt road. 2. Follow cycle path 44 through forest and paved roads to the top of the pass.

On Sundays and public holidays, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. is the ideal time to climb, as the pass road is closed to motorized traffic!
