We only use Swiss meat for our dishes. – Something interesting about the Aescher – History Our inn on the mountain has seen many proud, joyful and overwhelmed faces, considering the glorious view up here. It has existed in its current form since 1860 and is one of the oldest mountain inns of Switzerland. Pastor Ulmann was the first hermit to live in the Klause in Wildkirchli in 1658. More than 20 men followed his example until 1853 and shaped the history of the Wildkirchli as hermits and first hosts. Record from the Wildkirchli foreign book from 1795-1824: How small the earth from the mountain seems to me, how small it may seem to the highest! So nobody imagines anything big, live down there as brothers, little ones! – Something interesting about the Aescher – Transport Everything we offer on the Aescher has to get up here first. Fortunately, that is a bit easier today than it used to be back in the days with a backpack and mule. Nevertheless, the entire logistics is still a big challenge today. As we’re the only restaurant in the Alpstein, we don’t have our own transport track or access road. We transport many goods with the Ebenalpbahn. There are three transport days per week on which we bring goods up the mountain. 800 kilograms or a pallet with 32 harasses can be transported per trip. The cargo is then “lowered” above the Wildkirchli cave and from there transported with our “Hukis“ (tracked dumpers) to the restaurant. Likewise, our empties and waste get back into the valley. Sometimes we also use a helicopter. Water Washing your hands in a mist of water or a vacuum flush as in an airplane - these innovations in our sanitary facilities help us to use water sparingly, since we don’t get our water from a “normal” water pipe, but from our own reservoir in the Wildkirchli cave. This reservoir is fed by rain that seeps into the ground and hence is cleaned there. The reservoir holds up to 84000 liters of water, of which we use about 3000 liters per day. Sure, the supply leads to problems during times of a drought. – Shop– In the great Aescher shop you will find all the popular Aescher products, such as the Aescher pocket knife, homemade fruit bread or other souvenirs and gourmet items from local suppliers and partners. Come over and have a look! or check out our online shop: www.aescher.ch – thank you for visiting us –.

  • Switzerland Itinerary
    SWITZERLAND ITINERARY 8 DAYS, 8 NIGHTS — DAY 1 — Welcome to Switzerland! We suggest arriving in Zurich prior to this day so you have time to walk the timeless streets of old town Zurich. First thing in the morning we will meet for an orientation breakfast and depart from Zurich by vehicle to the Alpstein mountain range of northeast Switzerland. We will check into our hotel in the village of Appenzell and set off immediately on our first adventure. We will embark on a dreamlike hike taking in a stunning mountain, Saxer Lucke, before continuing on to Falensee Lake. We’ll enjoy a hearty lake side lunch at a local mountain hut. We would suggest trying a local favorite: A steaming plate of rosti smothered in Appenzeller cheese. We’ll then return to the hotel to rest or do some sightseeing at one of the nearby castles. — DAY 2 — After breakfast, we will embark on a hike that epitomizes the incredible vistas of the Swiss Alps. It starts with a cableway ride to some historic cultural stops. We’ll pass through the Wildkirchli Museum caves and stop at the must-see cliff-side Aescher restaurant. We will spend the rest of the day hiking across magnificent terrain with views spanning to three countries filled with wildflowers, lakes, and massifs. You will pass mountain farms that make the famous Appenzell cheeses from their herds of cows freely grazing on the slopes. We’ll end the day with dinner beside Seealp Lake before returning to our hotel. EPICONEADVENTURES.COM — DAY 3 — We’ll take a slower pace today as we leave Appenzell for the famed Lauterbrunnen Valley and the cliff top village of Murren where we will lodge for the next two nights.

  • Swiss Volkskalender of the 18Th and 19Th Centuries – a New Source of Climate History?
    Swiss Volkskalender of the 18th and 19th Centuries – A New Source of Climate History? Master Thesis Faculty of Science University of Bern handed in by Isabelle Vieli 2020 Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Christian Rohr, Institute of History, Oeschger Centre for Climate Change Research, University of Bern Co-Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Stefan Brönnimann, Institute of Geography, Oeschger Centre for Climate Change Research, University of Bern Abstract The Volkskalender is one of the earliest printed mass media of the early modern times. The non-calen- drical part, which also contains climate- and weather-related data, has not yet been systematically analysed. This study focuses on the Appenzeller Kalender, one of the most successful and continuous Volkskalender over time. Within the 144 observed years, 1,424 climate- and weather-related entries were counted. The information mainly consists of retrospective information, and to a lesser extent forecasts and knowledge on climate- and weather-related topics. The calendar reflects and discusses extreme natural events and impacts on society. About half of the years, which showed a peak in one of the quantitative analyses (such as number of pages, keywords and clusters), coincide with a re- ported weather anomaly. The yearly report on seasonal weather does not fulfil the requirements for a time series, as precise information on the measuring place and dates are missing. Therefore, a time series is not feasible. However, the extensive content related to weather and climate provides a de- tailed picture of the perception of natural events during the period 1722‒1865 and the change in ex- planatory patterns over time. 2 TABLE OF CONTENT 1.

He has used this opportunity to explore depictions of palaeontology in British children’s television and his piece is jam-packed with libellous statements about the workings of Council. Speaking of which, our outgoing president Paul Smith gives us his promised Legends of Rock piece on Gertrude Elles, whose name now adorns the newly constituted public engagement prize (replacing the narrower-scoped Golden Trilobite), the first winner(s) of which will be announced at the Annual Meeting in Bristol. Other highlights of the current issue include Jan Zalasiewicz’s piece, which features an athletic Darwin and ponders the distribution of biomass across time and taxa. Tim Smithson, Nick Fraser and Mike Coates tell the story of Stan Wood’s remarkable contribution to Carboniferous vertebrate palaeontology through his many years of collecting at Wardie in Scotland and announce the digital availability of a previously incredibly hard to find publication by Stan2.
