Location and surroundings

The Schimbrig has a long back, which is located in the southwest-northeast axis. The extension runs southwest over the Schafmatt towards Schrattenfluh . In the west, the Schimbrig falls into the Schimbrig Bad. In the south it falls into a valley in which the pass road to the Glaubberg is located.

Pastor Joseph Xaver Schnyder von Wartensee (1750–1784) first mentioned a sulfur fountain in 1782 on the Schimbrig. At the beginning of the 19th century, water began to be bottled and sold there. In 1854 Peter Thalmann from Schüpfheim bought the sulfur springs and built the Schimbrig Bad spa.
