From 20 February to 24 March 2025, the new building regulations and the new zoning plan as well as other supplementary documents will be open to the public.

This means that a process lasting several years, in which the population has been actively involved, is entering a decisive phase. In order to inform the population in advance about the planned changes, the municipal council has invited all Walchwil residents to an information event in the municipal hall on 18 February 2025.

The documents will be available to the public for 30 days from 20 February 2025. Those affected have until 24 March 2025 to submit written, substantiated objections.

All objections received will be carefully examined. Together with the reservations from the cantonal preliminary review, they will be used to prepare the final draft, which the voters of Walchwil will decide on at the ballot box.

The documents can be viewed at the municipal administration during regular opening hours. They are also available in electronic form: Ortsplanungsrevision – Start der öffentlichen Auflage

The Walchwil International Mens Club enjoyed an evening of local culture as part of their February meeting last night.

In collaboration with the Kulturalkommission and local artist Heidi Müller, members & guests were treated to a private showing of Heidi`s current exhibition.

Heidi presented her artwork to the club, answering a number of questions as well as confirming that nature is indeed her favourite subject matter.

Thanks also go to Martin and Caroline from the Kulturalkommission for supporting such a wonderful evening. Neil Macleod

The Jass Cup, traditionally held at the end of January in the Aesch restaurant, offered the finest Jass spectacle. In 4 rounds, the 56 participants fought a duel with partners drawn by lot. And the winner was Hans-Ruedi Meuwly.

Walchwil Jass fans of all ages came together for an exciting competition. The event attracted both young and older participants, who put their skills to the test at the Jass table. The sumptuous table of gifts provided additional motivation for the Jass players. It was a convivial evening full of fun and competitive spirit, where young and old could enjoy their passion for Jass together. The Jass Cup is a popular tradition that generates new enthusiasm every year.

On Thursday, 7 November 2024, the Walchwil men's team opted for a bowling evening at the Whiteline bowling centre in Meierskappel instead of the usual physical training. Unfortunately, only eight participants met in Walchwil village square at 7 pm to drive to the bowling centre together. The focus this evening was on having fun and socialising together rather than the usual training.
After an entertaining bowling session, the evening ended with a cosy beer in the Aesch in Walchwil. It was a welcome change for the men's team, who enjoyed the evening and were delighted with the successful event.

Angela Grosswiler from Walchwil has won the title at the Swiss Wheelchair Tennis Championships in Bulle.

The championships took place from 13 September to 15 September, with seven women competing for the coveted title. The action on the court was fierce and the matches were exciting. Angela Grosswiler came out on top and won the Swiss championship title.

In the mixed doubles, she and her partner Roger Baumann reached the final, but were beaten after a thrilling match. They were runners-up in the Swiss Championships. This marked the end of a fantastic national title competition.

In sunny weather, 24 bikers met on the town square to kick off the new season. The participants were split into two groups and enjoyed the perfect conditions and the evening atmosphere. The route led towards Oberwil via Schönegg or Fuchsloch, on towards Winterstein and then via Vorderbergstrasse or Herrenwald back to Walchwil, where everyone was catered for by Beatrice and Robin.
