Aargau is a canton that prescribes itself to water, what with its many rivers criss-crossing it. There is the Rhine, the Aare, the Limmat, the Reuss, and of course, Lake Hallwil. It makes for a fun time anyway, with lots to see, such as castles, fortresses, thermal spas, a stroll through the local vineyards, the lush forests of the Jura, and quiet valleys. Aargau is an ideal gateway to various Swiss cities, such as Basel, Berne, Solothurn, Luzern, Zug, Zürich, and even the Southern part of Germany.
