  • General Information About Gimmelwald and Your Accommodation, the Chalet "Anneli"
    General information about Gimmelwald and your accommodation, the Chalet "Anneli" "Do you realize you're living in paradise?" And in fact: Our guests could not have said it more precisely! Gimmelwald, the small village in the Bernese Oberland on 1367 meter over sea (4485 foot), overlooking the UNESCO world heritage area Jungfrau-Aletsch-Bietschhorn. The intact, pedestrian, Alpine village is located in the heart of the Swiss alps perched high on the edge of a cliff and embraced by Mother Nature herself, and one of the last car-free villages in Switzerland. It is accessible only with the Schilthorn-cableway or by foot. On icy winter nights, while the snow crunches softly under your feet, the stars are so close you could practically touch them. After a full day on the ski slopes or an impressive hike through the silent winter wonderland, you’re in the mood for a warm apple cider or spiced wine. Let yourself be enchanted by the native landscape, while skiing or hiking in the quiet winterworld. In summer the strenuous hike to the top of the Schilthorn is rewarded with an incomparable 360°- panorama view. See the ibex, chamois, and groundhogs in their natural environment. Discover forays of wild flowers like gentian and edelweiss. Travelling by car: Take the highway Bern, Thun, Interlaken, then direction Wilderswil, Lauterbrunnen and Stechelberg. There is a big parking-place at the base-terminal of the Schilthorn cableway (subject to charges). There are transportation trolleys, which are taking your luggage free of charge up to Gimmelwald. Travelling by public transports: Take the train to Interlaken Ost, here you change the train to Lauterbrunnen.

  • Reichenbach and Beyond - the Final Problem Revisited
    1 A new conference organised by The Reichenbach Irregulars of Switzerland in September 2017 Reichenbach and Beyond - The Final Problem revisited Das Hotel Panorama, Hasliberg-Reuti / Meiringen, Switzerland Thursday, 31st August 2017 to Sunday, 3rd September 2017 Following the successful conference Alpine Adventures – Arthur Conan Doyle and Switzerland, held at the Schatzalp, Davos, in September 20141, The Reichenbach Irregulars of Switzerland venture to take a fresh look at one of the most iconic Holmes adventures: The Final Problem. And where else could this take place than in the heart of the Berner Oberland, where the epic struggle between Holmes and Moriarty took place more than 125 years ago. The new conference Reichenbach and Beyond – The Final Problem revisited will take place in Hasliberg- Reuti / Meiringen from Thursday, 31st August to Sunday, 3rd September 2017. It will feature excursions into the dramatic landscape of the Berner Oberland, sights rarely explored by Sherlockians when they visit Meiringen and the Reichenbach Falls. What’s more, the conference will present insightful lectures to examine new evidence and re-visit long-accepted theories around the incident on that fateful 4th May 1891. The Final Problem revisited The starting point of this gathering is that for Sherlock Holmes the Reichenbach Falls is not a synonym for the end of his career, as he first predicted when he encountered the “somewhat sinister figure of the late Professor Moriarty standing upon the narrow pathway which led to safety.” Holmes reached safety and it was the Professor who fell that long way down into the abyss. The Great Hiatus marked a watershed in the career of Sherlock Holmes.

    Marine Geology 241 (2007) 137–154 www.elsevier.com/locate/margeo The 1996 AD delta collapse and large turbidite in Lake Brienz ⁎ Stéphanie Girardclos a, , Oliver T. Schmidt b, Mike Sturm b, Daniel Ariztegui c, André Pugin c,1, Flavio S. Anselmetti a a Geological Institute-ETH Zurich, Universitätsstr. 16, CH-8092 Zürich, Switzerland b EAWAG, Überlandstrasse 133, CH-8600 Dübendorf, Switzerland c Section of Earth Sciences, Université de Genève, 13 rue des Maraîchers, CH-1205 Geneva, Switzerland Received 13 July 2006; received in revised form 15 March 2007; accepted 22 March 2007 Abstract In spring 1996 AD, the occurrence of a large mass-transport was detected by a series of events, which happened in Lake Brienz, Switzerland: turbidity increase and oxygen depletion in deep waters, release of an old corpse into surface waters and occurrence of a small tsunami-like wave. This mass-transport generated a large turbidite deposit, which is studied here by combining high- resolution seismic and sedimentary cores. This turbidite deposit correlates to a prominent onlapping unit in the seismic record. Attaining a maximum of 90 cm in thickness, it is longitudinally graded and thins out towards the end of the lake basin. Thickness distribution map shows that the turbidite extends over ∼8.5 km2 and has a total volume of 2.72⁎106 m3, which amounts to ∼8.7 yr of the lake's annual sediment input. It consists of normally graded sand to silt-sized sediment containing clasts of hemipelagic sediments, topped by a thin, white, clay-sized layer. The source area, the exact dating and the possible trigger of this turbidite deposit, as well as its flow mechanism and ecological impact are presented along with environmental data (river inflow, wind and lake-level measurements).
