Parking in front of the golf course, free of charge.
First through the forest to Oberbüren, over the Thur along the beaver path back to the starting point.
Easy hiking can also be done with children.

There is free parking right at the start. A simple yet pretty loop along the Thur. Below Niederhelfenschwil the path suddenly becomes narrow and uneven, it almost feels like a mountain path. If the weather is nice you would have a beautiful view of the Alps from here.
