Buechberg, Mountain summit in Schwyz, Switzerland
Description
Buechberg is a mountain that rises between Uznach and Nuolen, reaching 631 meters above sea level. Its steep slopes provide views down to Lake Zurich and the Linth River below.
History
The rock formations on Buechberg come from the molasse period, when sedimentary layers built up millions of years ago during the Swiss Plateau's development. These stone layers tell the geological story of the region.
