The not so simple search for the highest mountain in Aargau "Strihe Pt 866.7 m – highest Aargau mountain." That's what it says in black and white on the summit signpost. If only it were that simple! The highest elevation in Aargau, measuring 908 m, is actually located on the Geissflue ridge near Aarau. However, the main summit of the Geissflue lies on the border between the two cantons of Solothurn and Basel-Landschaft, and thus outside of Aargau. The highest summit entirely in Aargau is the 872 m high Stierenberg. But here too there is a caveat, as large parts of the slopes belong to the canton of Lucerne. Therefore, the Strihe in the Fricktal region is indeed the highest mountain entirely on Aargau soil.

    Nette Tour, t.w. schöne Aussicht und natürlich die Linner Linde. Zu Zeiten von Corona ein passendes Mahnmal. Wie lange wir noch rausdürfen wissen wir nicht - wir geniessen doppelt!
