Schachen

Highlight • Forest

Aarau has been closely associated with cavalry for over 100 years as a former cavalry trading post. Many Dragoons got to know Aarau and the Aarau Schachen during the recruit school or in WW's. For barracks belonged to the cavalry a large, 3-fold riding hall (about 20 x 80 m) and various stables. During the Second World War, internees, under the direction of cavalry officers and construction professionals of the city of Aarau built the hippodrome and the jumping and dressage facilities in the idyllic Schachenwald along the Aare. With the dissolution of the last cavalry units in 1972, these facilities could be taken over by private organizations. At this time, the founding of the cavalry and riding club can be traced back. In the Aargauer Schachen today is the racecourse, the outdoor pool and the sports complex

Nice location. Great places on the Aare for chilling, swimming or barbecuing. In summer, a small snack stand with snacks and ice cream

This fish ladder with a new small hydropower plant at the dam Schönenwerd (built in 2005) fascinates me again and again.

Highlight • Rest Area

Beautiful barbecue area on the Aare
Unfortunately, the trees planted are still a bit small for a shade, but very nicely done 👍
