Directions

When coming from Basel drive past Aesch and go through the Eggflüe tunnel and continue for 1Km or so until there is a turning on the right to Nenzlingen Dorf. After about 400 metres the road goes right and there is a left turn towards the Restaurant Blauen Reben. Follow this narrow road uphill for another 1200 metres until just before a sharp left U turn. Park here on the right by the concrete blocks. If you reach the restaurant you have gone too far. A small path goes through the concrete blocks, follow this for a few minutes to a forest road. Turn right and then follow a track that goes uphill underneath sector "Loot" before reaching "Nellie the Elephant". 10 minutes from the car.
