Limmatspitz – Confluence of the Aare and Limmat

Highlight • River

Here the Limmat flows into the Aare. The water from the Reuss already flows into the Aare. About 700-1000m downstream, near Gibstorf, the Reuss joins the Aare.

For the transport of waste water from the entire settlement area on the left side of the Aare River in 1972, a suspended pipe bridge was built with a length of 120 meters and a span of 80 meters. The hot-dip galvanized steel structure suspended from steel cables also carries natural gas and electric lines over the river. Pedestrians and cyclists also enjoy frequent use of the bridge to cross the river.

Confluence of the Reuss and Aare

Highlight • River

The confluence of the Reuss and Aare rivers is located in the so-called "water castle of Switzerland," a unique river landscape in the canton of Aargau. Here, the three major rivers, the Aare, Reuss, and, a little further downstream, the Limmat, meet—a hydrologically significant location where water from around 40% of Switzerland's land area converges.

August 7, 2022,🇨🇭 Morgenspaziergang im Wasserschloss ab Turgi

At Turgi, the Reuss flows first, then the Limmat into the Aare. Very beautiful paths lead directly or near the water, so that you can enjoy walking in the near-natural forests and in the floodplain area.
