Aare Gorge West Entrance

Highlight • Gorge

The west entrance of the Aare Gorge is the main access to the gorge and is located on the side of Meiringen. For many visitors, it is the most pleasant starting point, as the best infrastructure is available here. Parking spaces directly at the entrance, also for coaches. Restaurant and kiosk with terrace, as well as a large children's playground. Accessible section: From the west entrance to about the middle of the gorge, the path is easily passable with a wheelchair and narrow prams. Return by train: The Aareschlucht West stop is about a 10-minute walk from the entrance. The return journey on the Meiringen–Innertkirchen railway is included in the entrance fee.
