Naturama, which opened in 2002, is one of the most modern nature museums in Switzerland. As they embark on a journey through time, visitors are able to see how nature in the region was formed, how it looks today, and its potential future development, all this in an entertaining way and as an experience for all the senses.

Villa Boveri was built between 1895 and 1897 and was the home of the Boveri family, co-founders of the former BBC electrotechnical company. The stately neo-Gothic structure includes a park with a combination - rare in Switzerland - of landscaped gardens and French neo-Baroque gardens.

Test all your senses to the limit at the Aargau's first ever tree-top ropes course in Gränichen, featuring climbing, swinging, jumping, balancing and co-ordinating skills.
