    sehr schöne Strecke. Teilweise kann man den Wanderweg verlassen, damit man mehr am Ufer der Aare wandert

    Wunderschöner Spaziergang entlang der Aare. Landschaftlich sehr abwechslungsreich. Optimal für Sonntagnachmittag. Sehr gut: Velo- und Wanderwege sind nur anfangs zusammen, danach getrennt.

    Kaum raus aus Olten befindet man sich draussen in der Natur. Der Wanderweg führt den auf der ganzen Strecke renaturierten Nebenflüssen der Aare entlang. Natur zum erleben. Auf- Abstieg bemerkt man nicht. Sehenswert sind die Fischtreppen bei den Stauwehren. Die wunderschön angelegte Parkanlage beim Bally-Museum in Schönenwerd. Immer wieder Plätze an denen sich ein Halt lohnt. Erstaunlich wenige Wanderer und Spaziergänger befanden sich an diesem sonnigen Samstag auf dem Weg.
