German Version


 
Between Meiringen and  Willingen in the valley of
Hasli we find as leftover from the ice age a power-
ful rock barrier, the Kirchet.

A long time before, as the glaciers reaches
deeply into the valley, there already arises
deep cuts under the ice.

Stones and water worked as inexorable file further
and it developed during thousands of years the
gulch of the Aare.

Through the wash away, large surfaces aborted.
You can determine this at the almost vertical
rocks.

With enormous walls on both sides the rocks
stands there and at the closest place they are
hardly one meter apart. Only briefly before
noon meagerly the sun lights into the gulch.

Today, this 1`400 meter long and 200 meter
deep nature miracle can be reached
over a bar and tunnels to be safely wandered
through.

- an experience for young and old.

The gulch is open daily from April till the 1.th
of November depending on the weather situation.

In July and August there is every Wednesday and
Friday at 21:00 a charm evening lighting.
