The Kretenweg is wonderful to ride, the ascent on both sides probably includes pushing sections.

The Amtshölzli barbecue area is located above Aarburg in a quiet forest area with a beautiful view of the surrounding area. The site is well equipped with a fireplace, seating and usually a supply of wood. It is ideal for families, hikers and relaxing breaks. The place is easily accessible on foot and offers a relaxed atmosphere in the middle of nature. Especially on weekends, the barbecue area is a popular meeting place for locals and day trippers.
