Aareknie Wolfwil-Wynau

The Aareknie Wolfwil-Wynau extends over 110 hectares across the Bern and Solothurn cantons, featuring steep riverbanks and diverse sedimentary formations along the Aare River.

The area received federal protection status in 1996 under Swiss law, marking its inclusion in the Federal Inventory of Landscapes and Natural Monuments of National Importance.

The Reformed Church of Wynau and an old mill in Wolfwil stand as architectural elements within this natural reserve, connecting human heritage with environmental preservation.

Visitors can access the area through marked paths and observe the local wildlife, including the protected crested newts that inhabit the designated breeding grounds.

The Chli Aarli section contains nationally recognized amphibian breeding sites, supporting specific species that depend on the particular geological conditions of this river bend.
