Enjoy a view right out to the horizon: Solothurn’s local mountain not only offers views of the Alps, but also great food and instructive hiking trails – the Weissenstein has it all.
Solothurn is not just my home, but also the canton closest to my heart.

I’m Michelle Ryser, I’m 27 and I live in Lohn-Ammannsegg. I’m a singer and I’ve been performing in Switzerland and abroad for the last 11 years. My style is ‘country folk’, which combines popular folk tunes and traditional country music.
Favourite spot: My hit single Hoch auf den Weissenstein is a very personal homage to the prettiest spot on earth. My annual ‘Wagenschopf’ party is one of many things keeping me linked to our mountain.
A real Solothurn ‘Meitschi’ (‘lass’) – that’s me! Solothurn is not just my home, but also the canton closest to my heart. It has so much to offer on top of its host of cultural events, romantic old town and countless secluded spots by the Aare. As a singer and ambassador, I represent my diverse region all around the world – and I do so with the utmost pride and respect.
