Aare Gorge and Reichenbach Falls

Wild water spectacle in Meiringen

Two awe-inspiring natural wonders give birth to spring in all its fullness.

Water – the source of life and inexhausible energy. The spectacular Reichenbach Falls, laden with snowmelt from the mountains, plunge downward for 120 metres, and the rushing waters then wind their way through the cliffs in the dark, 200-metre deep Aare Gorge. A breath-taking sight.
