Itinerary description

An easy hike starting in Leibstadt (with the largest nuclear power plant in Switzerland) follows the Rhine river until the the place where the Aare rivers opens into the Rhine and after and excursion to Leuggen goes back to the Aare river. The Endpoint is Döttingen.

The Aare is the longest wholly Swiss river. It originates from the Oberaar glacier in the eastern Bernese Alps, flows through lakes Brienz and Thun, passes by the federal capital of Bern, is channelled into Lake Biel, follows the southern foot of the Jura range and finally flows into the Rhine at Koblenz, in north-western Switzerland.

___________
Die Aare ist der längste rein schweizerische Fluss. Sie entspringt dem Oberaargletscher in den östlichen Berner Alpen, fliesst durch fabelhaften Schluchten, durchfliesst den Brienzer- und Thunersee, führt vorbei an der Bundesstadt Bern, wird in den Bielersee geleitet, folgt dem Jurasüdfuss und mündet bei Koblenz in der Nordwestschweiz in den Rhein.
