The Areuse gorge is a spectacular hike through a narrow gorge.  And the sky provides a beautiful backdrop even even from the bottom of the gorge.

The Areuse gorge can be reached easily from Basel.  The hike starts in open fields but follows the Areuse stream as it descends sharply, falling through narrow gorges.   The route can be treacherous but the narrow gorges are beautiful and the falls spectacular.  There is a large variety of birds and at Champ-du-Moulin, about half way along the route, trout can be seen swimming up the current.
