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.

Jungfrau Region – Program Inspiration Spring
JUNGFRAU REGION – PROGRAM INSPIRATION SPRING DAY 1 MEIRINGEN Right at the back of the Bernese Oberland, at the foot of lake Brienz and surrounded by countless mountain peaks there's a village called Meiringen. Together with four other communities Meiringen builds the Haslital. Tourists all around the world visits this popular place with about 5000 inhabitants. Meiringen is the perfect point of departure for many adventures around the Haslital. ~2h AARE GORGE The Haslital, one of the large valleys in the central alps, stretches from the Grimsel Pass to the Lake of Brienz. The flat valley floor of the lower Haslital is separated from the upper valley by a transverse rock formation. Over thousands of years, the Aare River eroded a path through this rock formation resulting in a gorge which is 1’400 metres long and up to 200 metres deep. This gorge has been accessible for over 100 years by a system of safe paths and tunnels. The walk through the gorge is a very special way to experience nature ~3h ALPEN TOWER In summer the Alpen tower is a perfect point of departure for many hikes and for paragliding. And don't miss the display of Muggestutz' winter world at the Alpen tower. 1 MERINGUES TASTING In the Museum of culinary art in Frankfurt the source of the development of the «Meringue» was discovered before the Second World War from these papers (unfortunately destroyed during the war) it becomes clear that the «Meringue» was first made by a patissier called Casparini around 1600 in Meiringen. He named his creation after the place where the idea was born and that was Meiringen.

IMIA New Sheet March 2011 Nationale Suisse
Top of Switzerland – Opportunities, Threats and Challenges of mountain rail- and cableways systems A couple of hundred years ago, the enjoying of the mountain world was the privilege of some spe- cialists and the affluent people. A lot of mountain regions were inaccessible without technical in- stallations. Thanks to the technical development during the last few decades, the mountains have been accessible for almost everybody – get closer to the peak of the mountain and discover the fantastic world around you on Top of Switzerland! The developing of the alpine tourism lead to the construction of many tourist facilities including different methods of transport in the mountains. The first cable car in Switzerland was built in 1866 on the Falls of the River Rhine close to Schaff- hausen. Today more than 1700 cableways and funicular railways are in operation in Switzerland. Schilthorn – Piz Gloria: Best view of Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau! One of the most famous places for tourists in Switzerland is “Schilthorn” in the Bernese Oberland area. In 1967 Schilthorn was made accessible to tourists by a cableway from Stechelberg via Mür- ren and Birg to the summit. And not only this: The first turning restaurant in the world at 3’000 me- ter attitude called "Piz Gloria" was opened offering spectacular views on the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau (UNESCO world heritage) which are situated opposite of the Schilthorn. It was made fa- mous in 1969 when used as a filming location for the “On Her Majesty's Secret Service” of the James Bond 007 movie. The cableway to the planned Schilthorn restaurant had run out of money when the Bond film was being planned.
