Gypsboden locality

Gypsboden, on the right as you descend, indicates the former presence of gypsum quarries in the municipality of Zimmersheim (which can be seen in the valley). On the way down, there is a nice view of the village of Eschentzwiller and its perched bell tower, the Jura in the background, the town of Basel a little to the left and, in the distance, on a clear day, the snow-covered Bernese Alps.
