Must see when you are in Solothurn. A pity that the tower wasn't open when we were there. Check-out the concerts.

Reviewed By Mick1803 - Koeniz, Switzerland
This is a very nice day hike if you follow the Planetenweg from the Sun (Weissenstein) to the outer rims of Pluto (Grenchenberg). Highest point of the hike is Hasenmatt at 1430m with very goid views over the Swiss plateau and the Alps. There are plenty of place to rest and have refreshments. From Unterer Grenchenberg there is public transport to Grenchen SBB station with connections to Zurich or Biel. In early summer take care of icy bits in the steeper parts of Hasenmatt or Grenchenberg.
