With the Weissenstein cable car, a visit to Solothurn’s local mountain will be an unforgettable experience right from the start. In around 10 minutes, the cable car takes you up to the Weissenstein in its panoramic gondolas and is sure to leave a lasting impression. The unique view of the Swiss Plateau and the Alps amazes visitors. The Planet Trail is a further highlight on the mountain, bringing the old and new of the universe closer together. Plus, the Jura garden with around 200 plant species and the cosy mountain inns make the Weissenstein a popular natural oasis.
