Hint

Intro

Magnificent and extremely varied route along the valley floor of the Hasliaare. Lake Brienz, Ballenberg and the wonderful view into the Hasli valley are constant companions along this route which is also suitable for families.

Description

From Brienz railway station we pass through the village section of Kienholf and under the imposing ridge of the Ballenberg. Between Balmhof and Funtenen the steep valley sides converge increasingly on the river Aare. After the Funtenensee, the valley floor opens again, allowing us to travel to Meiringen via Hausen.

From Meiringen a visit to the imposing and accessible Aare Canyon is well worth the time – where you witness how the Hasliaare has cut its way meter-deep through the rocks to then pour thundering into the canyon depths.

An enjoyable tour includes the careful planning of the same. Please inform yourself in advance at the local information center about the route and weather conditions. Depending on the season and weather conditions, this route may be blocked or interrupted
