Upper Winde

Upper Winde is a mountain summit in Solothurn featuring limestone rock formations that are part of the Jura range. Several marked trails approach the peak from different directions, making it accessible for hikers of various abilities.

The summit formed through tectonic movements during the creation of the Jura Mountains millions of years ago. This ancient geological process shaped the rock formations and landscape visible today.

Local people use this summit year-round for outdoor activities like hiking and snowshoeing depending on the season. The paths and clearings show how the community values spending time in nature.

Multiple hiking trails depart from different starting points around the area, with parking spaces and information boards available at each trailhead. The routes are well-marked and suitable for visitors with varying levels of experience.

From the summit, views take in the entire Solothurn region showing a mix of thick forests and agricultural land below. This combination of wooded slopes and open farmland is characteristic of the Jura area.
