Schwarzwaldalp

Highlight • Mountain Hut

In the small hamlet you will find a hotel, a hostel with a restaurant and an old sawmill. On a hike you can spend the night here well or stop. The PostBus also stops here, so you can even get on or off by public transport.

Gletscherschlucht Rosenlaui

Highlight • Gorge

The Rosenlaui Glacier Gorge near Meiringen is a natural wonder in the Bernese Oberland. Over millennia, meltwater from the Rosenlaui Glacier has eroded the rock, creating smooth walls, whirlpools, and narrow passages. Today, you can marvel at the approximately 500-meter-long gorge, part of the Jungfrau-Aletsch UNESCO World Heritage Site, on a well-secured path.

Rosenlaui Gorge Waterfalls

Highlight • Gorge

Here you get an impression of the elemental force of the water, which has sanded bizarre rock formations, cauldrons, funnels. One cannot imagine that this vast amount of water drains the Rosenlaui glacier.

June 20, 2022,Grindelwald: Schwarzwaldalp nach Rosenlaui, Rosenlaui-Gletscher

From the Schwarzwaldalp to Rosenlaui there is a romantic path along the river. Later we leave this but the path remains very varied. Sometimes through the forest, sometimes along meadows.
When we reach Rosenlaui we hike through the Rosenlaui glacier gorge. A wet, happy and cold experience. The Weissenbach has dug its way deep into the limestone and slate rocks. …

June 20, 2022,Grindelwald: Schwarzwaldalp ins Rosenlaui mit Gletscherschlucht

After a little refreshment, we started our hike to the Rosenlaui, almost always along the Rychenbach, a wild and romantic body of water that rises at an altitude of 1950m at the foot of a glacier.
